I'll be moving a state or two away here in a few months and would like to find out what is in the tire so I can ask the best way to drain it. Farming is LONG gone from this area, so this will be DIY. Should I just go and push on the tube valve and see what comes out? Ideas? Advice? KRS [Reply]   [No Email]

So, all of them (but antifreeze) can go on the ground, right? I'll give it a whiff, then think about the taste test ;) I'm just going to roll the tire so the valve is as low as possible, then empty what I can to make moving easier.
