Green Goop is great for bicycle tires.

Plugs and slime keep em going

I keep plugs and tool on the quad, and an old bicycle tire hand pump under the back seat of the truck.

Well looked around couldn't find any my old kits. So went across street to O'Reilly's got a new plug kit.. And yes there is really an O'Reilly's across the street from my house..When they were deciding where to build the store they saw all the junk in my yard so figured was good spot. Actually have 4 parts houses with in walking distance sad to say.
Anyway got a plug kit and watched the boy plug his first tire. Don't recall my old plug tool being like a pinch deal. Thought it was more a J-hook kind thing. So he had just bit trouble getting plug to pop off tool, but he gotter done.. Was still holding air after hour sitting. Test will come Saturday when he take machine on trail run fundraiser for volunteer fire department to west of us.

So here is the nail in the tire can see small bubbles. He washed the machine before he plugged the tire so was some soap there.



Way longer bugger than I thought it be looks to be siding nail.



The plug before I trimmed it down so is maybe half inch sticking out now.



So we will see what happens.

I appreciate all the good input.. We didn't shoot any slime or fix a flat in it. Can always play that card if have to fix it again..
Also planning to maybe put a small plug kit right on each machine. We were 26 miles out when I noticed the nail in his tire. Next time may leak flat getting 26 mile back to camp.
