Old, in a past post you said you had a way to fill tires, just drop you an email. For some reason I have not been able to do that. Profile does not show your email address, tried to send pm and private message is out of order. I tried both classic and modern view.

| I use WW fluid too.
wherever you buy, talk to a manager, even at department, dollar stores.
most will negotiate.
I put one of those white plastic 35g water tanks up in the
rafters of my shop.(storage platform)
water spigot on the tank, some garden hose down to a Gempler fill valve.
tire valve at 12 o'clock, jack under the rear to take the
weight off.
open the spigot and let it fill. |

| We use windshield washer fluid (since we live in NY we use winter formula...have found best price is by the gallon @ Wally World), use a plain old submersible pump with a garden hose attached and an empty (then filled with fluid) 55 gallon drum (if you are gonna use Calcium Chloride and water your pump might not last as long). Then attach the hose to the adapter: http://www.gemplers.com/tech/tire-liquid.htm then jack one side, put your valve stem at either 10 or 2 oclock so you still have room for air after you fill. Occasionally hit the release valve on the side of the fitting as you will need to let air you are displacing out Quick and easy...use a bottle of waterbed conditioner in each tire if you use windshield washer fluid to prevent algea. We've had it in some tractors over 10 years now and ver happy! |

| Most tire dealers have a filler kit that fits both the large rear tire tube core and the smaller front tube core for filling with a common garden hose. To fill with antifreeze just put the chemical above the fill opening and siphon it into the tire. Have the core at the top and when no more liquid will go in just stop the flow of chemical and push the little valve on the tool to let some air out and then start it running again till you have all you want in the tire/tube. Put the valve core back in and inflate with air.Zane |

| Will work fine. I bought a small gear pump and it takes about 15 minutes to fill a rear tire to the top of the rim. I see where Miller tire no longer reccommends sugar beet juice (rimguard). they recommend waste antifreeze or windshield washer fluid. I use anti freeze because you cant get washer fluid used lol. They also list four reasons why they dont like rimguard. I thought it was the best, but I guess opinions change. |
