Sweet thank you for this! I’m 20 years old trying to fix my families lawn mower tire and with this I finally got it up and driving!
Fantastic!
I'm 46 and have no idea what I'm doing.
Pounded my head on the wall for 2 hours with a small tire that I could not get to seat and the rope trick worked in about 30 seconds. Thanks for the video. A+
You're Welcome...
You had me at Busch
_AWESOME!_ Thanks Steve. My lawn tractor had 1 tire that was completly flat this morning, and wouldn't keep any air in because it had separated from the rim. I was so bummed out until I found this video. This worked in like 1 minute. Thank you!
Great job!
Steve, your videos are always extremely helpful. Here's a tip I discovered...
The front tires on my Kubota compact tractor would go flat after about a week and I found that air was escaping around the rim. Twice, I took care to ensure the rims were clean of all grease, dirt, etc., and inflated properly but still leaked. Not wanting to spend $30 + for bead sealant, I sprayed some CRC belt conditioner on the outer edge of the tires and have held air for six months now. This also worked on my trailer spare.
I don't do alot of commenting on videos, but i thought i would say thank you for this trick. I've been on a tire for an hour now with no luck, and the rope trick came in like a champ!
Great to hear!
Thanks for the tip. I used a ratchet strap and a bike pump. Worked perfectly first try
Excellent!
Thank you. I got two same tires to fix and at tire place they quoted me $60!
I have to say thanks!! 2022, February.....we're in the middle of the biggest snow this season and my snowthrower had a flat! I got it fixed thanks to you my friend.
Fantastic!
Thanks for the advice on the new tire. I have used that method for a long time. I also put a small bead of grease around the rim to make the tire grip the rim a bit better. It works for me.
Genius. And it works. I've been fighting with the bead on a hand truck tire for two days. This worked on the first try.
Right on
That technique works pretty well but I think the starter fluid and a lighter is much more fun!
I had a wheel barrow wheel that was leaking air around the rim. It would go flat in about 3 minutes. I cleaned up the area around the rim of the wheel that was cRusty and attempted to put the tire back on. The temperatures dropped over here and the bead did not want to seat being so ridged from the cold. So I used fire and that worked beautifully except I couldn't get the air into the tire soon enough so the bead would back off becuz the air would contract and broke the seal once again. But I also noticed the tire was pretty warm and malleable. So I wondered and went back to using your method using a rachet strap instead of rope and to my delight it sealed it well enough for me to put air into it and confetti was flying everywhere. (meaning I was successful and actually this whole scenario just played out just last night)
I've actually been using your method for decades. It's very very handy. Thanks for putting this up!
I was a bit skeptical when you started with the Busch, but the trick worked liked an f-ing charm ! Thanks, I had been jerking around for 1/2 hour trying to seat the tire with no success prior to watching the video.
Right on Eric....
I always visit this chanel when I have some issues with my small engines. And there are plenty of them.
But today was the first time I couldn't fix it with Steve's help.
Keep on going. Sometimes I watch only for fun because it's a great chanel.
Thanks for the video. You helped me get the grass cut today. 👍
Glad I could help
I rarely ever comment on videos, but i have to say thank you to Steve, worked like a charm in no time. The tire I used was so disformed and nothing but round and with the pump running, simultaneously rotate the tire and push the middle tread in with my thumbs, it filled right up. Thanks again Steve! And all the people making bad comments, probably dont know what side of the screwdriver to use anyway. Dont listen to them hoss. Great video.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
@@StevesSmallEngineSaloon Not to dig a vid up from the past but I had the same problem as the original poster. Used a motorcycle strap and was done in minutes. Thanks!
You're the man. You sir just saved me $65. Can't thank you enough!
Glad I could help!
Wow, that's an awesome tip! I grew up on a tire shop, and then married a tire shop... and I thought ether was the only solution!
Thanks Steve ! And that method works well on car tires as well,as I found out just now when I dragged my car out of a snowbank, sideways, and popped the inside of one tire bead off. [ The back side of mag wheels often don't have a very secure seat on the tire at the best of times.] I used your rope method and it worked awesome ! !
I have been fighting with this issue on small tires for years. This is so simple and effective. Thanks Steve
You're Welcome...
Thank you. Your tip saved me. I tried for an hour with my knees and hands to set the bead and the rope trick worked great!
Right on Joe....
Man, you saved me again. Your channel is gold. The tire on my riding mower went flat and the bead was unseated from one side. I attached ratchet straps to the edge that was unseated with some tension and BAM it allowed the bead to be seated. Now I can mow while I wait for the replacement tire to come in.
Great to hear!
Thank you Sir! Direct and to the point is very much appreciated! Keep up the great work!
Thanks, will do!
Thank you. I spent 2 hours trying to get mine to seat. I finally realized someone on TH-cam had to know an easier way or "trick" to do this. Your help was invaluable and again thanxs for taking the time to share your knowledge
Glad it helped
I watched your video and used a ratchet strap instead of rope and I worked awesome! Your video was a life saver!!
Glad it helped!
Wow, you probably just saved my life. I was gonna do the “ether” method that I seen on TH-cam. I’ve been watching your videos I said you know what trust in this guy🙏
Glad I could help!
Thank you - big shout out to Steve for the great tip. Worked perfectly!!
Awesome..
I am glad that you showed me how to do the tire inflations with a string and strew driver. Because I generally take my lawnmower tires to a tire shop. Now I can do it myself. Thank you so much 👍🏽👍🏽
Didnt work. Always a gap for the air to blow by
Thanks, worked like a charm on my John Deere 2038R!
Great to hear!
My front tire came off rim today and I used a bungee cord to get the bead to hold. Your tip was great just 3 hours late. I'm pooped. Hardest part was jacking up the mower. Thanks for all the great tips. Have a great werk.
Right on
This was extremely helpful, I had to do this with one of my riding mower's front tire and it works!!! I sprayed some soapy water on the tire at the bead and that helped to seat the bead to the rim.
Fantastic!
Awesome tip, thank you so much; been fighting this tire for days, thanks again
Before my computer even "went to sleep", with your brilliant technique, got it done and mounted in a few minutes. Snowmobile trailer ready to go. Thanks!! Awesome vid. Time for a beer!
Right on Buddy...
I had a moving dolly that had not been used in a while with both of the tires beads broken. I tried several ways to try to get the beads to seat with no success. Used your method and it worked perfectly without even removing the tires from the dolly. Thanks.
Great job!
Gee. That's So simple. You've got all the tricks of the trade. Keep them coming, Steve.
Will do....
Thanks the tip on using the rope. I was able to get both to seal and inflate.
Excellent!
Very smart! I did the same thing yesterday with an old belt. Just pulled it as tight as I could. Luckily I didn't have to take the tire off to fill it.
Right on
OMG I've been taking this to the tire shop every time and they hate me for taking these small cheap Chinese tires can't wait to try it on my girls small ATV thanks
Good luck!
Steve, your tips are ingenious. It looks like the rope tip should work nicely with the tire on the improvised chainsaw wrench-vice tire change tip you showed on the tube replacement video.
What a great tip! I was skeptical that it would work that well, but man that seated my tire in no time!!! Thanks for the video!!!!
Glad it helped!
I remember having to do this on my utility trailer. Did it exactly like you did. Thanks for the reminder. Good job.
You're Welcome...
Thanks Steve for the tip on the tire and the rope, it worked like a charm.
Excellent!
Steve your a genius,simple but effective.
Thank You...
Thanks! I was going crazy trying to figure this out.
Glad I could help!
Thanks Steve. It worked I had to use 2 rachet straps side by side about 3 inches apart. Your the man
Nice work!
I would have never thought of that. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!
You're Welcome...
Dude thank you so much, I have been racking my brain for two days with these new tires. I’ll try this first thing tomorrow.
Right on
Great tip with the rope and screwdriver. Thanks!
You're Welcome...
I used a ratchet strap and your technique worked great on a tire that had gone flat enough to break the beads. The tire was on a push leaf blower only used for a few weeks each fall. I was prepping it for the upcoming season. Unfortunately, I learned why the tire went so flat- a small split in the tread. Oh well, learning was achieved! Thank you. Your videos are well done.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
You make it look easy even half in the bag. 👍
You my friend are Bad Ass. You're advice on seeding the tire was fantastic. Thank you
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
WOW!! This worked like a charm, thank you so much for sharing.
Great to hear!
Thanks Steve, awesome trick.
You're Welcome...
Just pure magic! Thanks for this video, really saved me time and money.
Great to hear!
OMG, this worked crazy simple!!! Amazing! Thank you.
Glad it helped!
Worked perfectly Thanks Steve
You're Welcome...
Thanks for the info! Helped me with my new mower tires.
Glad to help!
Dude you're videos have changed everything I thought I knew
I hope that's a good thing.....
This trick worked great! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for how to seat a tire. Very helpful...
You're Welcome...
Worked like a charm!
Thanks Steve!
You're welcome!
Kick ass. The ratchet strap works great. Just watch out when u release the ratchet. Little to much air. Came back n bit me. Tires full of air. Thanks!!
You're Welcome...
Worked like a charm, my friend. Thank you!
You're welcome!
Gotta love TH-cam helpers 👍🏼👍🏼
Great videos Steve! What a pain it is to remove and replace tires. I would add that sometimes it helps to remove the valve stem needle to initially seat the bead, I even use a simple blow gun with a rubber nozzle on the valve stem to get the pressure needed. Once it seats add the needle valve back in and inflate. Good luck guys!
Thank You...
Absolute genius !!!! Thank you 👍🏽👍🏽
You're Welcome...
Thanks! You just saved me a bunch of frustration
You're Welcome...
You're a legend mate, I was able to fixe my mower tire because of this video!
Many thanks!
Great to hear!
I came here looking for a solution and I found one. Looks nice and simple and I'll give it a go this weekend. Thanks very much. 👍
You're Welcome...
Worked like a charm.
We love your big tricks and small ones equally.
Thank You...
Steve, It"s almost like ESP. I just got a new tire and wahla you show me how to install it. Thanks a bunch.
You're Welcome...
I have this problem with my snow thrower tires which the tires are away from the wheel and not filling up with air -
now looking at this video of yours I am going to give this a try using the rope method - sure hope it works like your
tire did - thanks for this tip .
You're Welcome...
Well I'll be. It worked! You're awesome Steve!
Thank you so much! I'm glad it worked for you. Keep being awesome!
Thank you for this video Steve. Saved me another trip.
Great to hear!
Watching your video got my attention when seeing the beer going on tells all , What do I mean I always trust a man who drinks a good cold beer cheers, Keep the good work up
Thank You...
thanks for reminding me of this trick. I had forgotten it.
Happy to help
Your procedure worked! Thank you! 👍
You're welcome!
Wow!!!! Thats so simple!! Thanks Steve!!
You're Welcome...
Legend! Worked first time. Thanks a lot.
You're Welcome...
Best seating the bead video. Ty. One video a man tried to light carb cleaner.
Thank You...
Once again. You saved the day! Many Thamks!!
Glad to help!
Tried that method on a new tire no go it did bring it close enough. Had to use break cleaner and a torch. Set it instantly. A lot of these new tires are compressed for shipping and the sidewall sags terribly.
I was this close to figuring it out on my own when I got so frustrated I went to TH-cam 😅 thanks, bud.
Glad I could help!
Awesome lesson, excellent training video 🥇
Thank you kindly!
Wise knowledge to the rescue, thanks a lot, have learned many things from your channel!!!
Glad to hear it!
Wheres the love button? Thanks steve!
Right on buddy! You're Welcome...
Ok.... this is genius. I just found my snowblower tire is off its bead and, with this method, I don't even have to take the wheel off the blower! Thanks Steve!
Glad it helped!
@@StevesSmallEngineSaloon It did! Just got it done in time for the snow storm this weekend!
Worked great! Thanks for the tip.
Glad it helped!
I see this Guy and all the sudden i´m drinking a Beer ;-)
MC11 Bad2L
Glad that wasn't just me
The KISS method! Keep It Simple Stupid! Works every time. There’s enough detail to understand and not too much to confuse. Doesn’t hurt that it’s set up and edited well. From one Steve to another GOOD JOB!
Thank You...
Thumbs up good to know from the USA.
Thank You...
Brilliant Steve,nvr knew that one 🍻.......I found that depending on the rim & tyre side wall type that some combos match up better together,than others. The tyres that john deere used from factory on my D 130 did not match up so good as the aftermarket ones I ended up replacing them with on the original rims. Which were not buckled is another think to check 👍
Brilliant, worked perfectly
Right on
Exactly what I needed, thank you!
You're Welcome...
You're my hero man, thank you!
You're Welcome...
I'm sure I've said this before Steve, you are a KING!!!!!
Thank You...
That is a really neat trick you have. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
Thanks a lot for the vid and advice. It worked like a charm. On the first try !!!
Great to hear!
Thanks buddy, this video was phenomenal
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
