Good video A few extra points: If putting a tube in a formally tubeless first cut off the valve stem , it makes breaking the bead easier you are not compressing the remaining air to break the bead. When tube is in and you are filling take the valve core out fill until bead seats, let most air back out, then reinsert valve core and refill, This allows folds and creases in tube to straighten out preventing future leaks... On a related note When first filling a tubeless also take the valve core out, You get a unrestricted flow of air which makes it easier to seat the bead . Get Greasy
The reason I didn't mention about removing the valve core is I wanted to make the video as simple as possible. Most people don't have a valve core removal tool. You are absolutely correct though. Thanks for watching!
If one cuts the valve stem part of it may be hard to retrieve later, and you shouldn't put the tube in if part of the stem is still inside the tire, somewhere. Just remove the valve core out. That will let all the air our.
Awesome Video. Saved me so much time and money. For all those that wonder if you should pull out the old tube, I did. I used scissors to cut it out and pulled it out with pliers. I used that Dawn Powerwash thingie. super slick. I was friggin' amazed that it may have taken me 10 minutes from start to inflated tire. Thank you!!!!
This is the best video I have seen on installing an inner tube into a riding lawn mower tire! You made it look so simple. Gives me the confidence to do it myself. Thx!
Might still want to do that to make sure there aren't any thorns or stones in there, not criticizing this method, it's how I do my bike tires but just a heads up.
Dude I really appreciated your video. Getting that bead to release did take a few more punches for me. Sure didn't want to spend all the money for a new tire, when my tread is still great. Again thank you, and I pray that God Blesses you Too! Stephen
Inflate the tube out of the box 1st to see if it holds pressure then deflate it! It will give more flexibility when trying to stuff it in the rim & pull the valve stem thru & place it in evenly around!
All I use is a 5/8 bolt 8 inch long and nut, put in vice and tighten it Place wheel on bolt and tighten nut Use a rounded large old screwdriver push down and get a bit, I put soapy water or grease to ease removing tire , use other screwdriver to hold and get other bit By now you figured it out
With both sides broke you can pull up on the tire so you can put the tube in the tire. Then work the tire back on the rim. No a very good explanation but that's how I do it. Thanks for watching!
@ thanks. The area around the stem was the hardest part but I got it. Used a wrench to separate the tire from the rim to create some space to get it in. Thanks again
As fiddly as that may seem this approach looks WAY easier than taking the tire off the rim, installing the tube and putting it back on. Will try that next time... Pretty sure that is coming soon on wither riding mower or snowblower... Thx.
Since I put plugs to patch holes/;eaks in the tire, I clip those off. I also add a layer of some rubber material around inside the tire to protect the inner tube from puncture. What good does it do to put the inner tube in, if it will just be punctured. I also put a cable tie around the valve stem to hold it from coming out, while stuffing the inner tube in. Leave the cable tie on .
It's a good idea to rub your hand around the inside of the tire to make sure there is nothing sticking through that will pop your tube as soon as you fill it with air. I have had that happen a few times. Thanks for watching!
Also some Valve caps will do the trick! Keep them vise grip teeth away from the soft rubber. But most caps will be larger with will prevent the backing out as said
No. There was no tube in this tire. They don't come with tubes when new. They are tubeless tires. But when they leak air it's much cheaper to just put a tube in it then it is to replace the tire.
What do you do if after inflating the tube the valve stem slips inside the hole and can't be pulled out? Just hope you never have to fill the tube with air again? After I released the vice grip it just flew back inside the tire lol
There's a problem with your method. You didn't check for objects like thorns or broken glass imbedded in the tire. You could end up with another holey tube if you don't check.
You don't even need to break the bead on the other side. Just break one side, cut the valve out, stuff the tube in, fish the valve through, and you're done.
Most people don't have a beard breaker. Or a valve core tool or a tire changer. Most people don't do it because they think you need these tools. The video was to just show you can do it with ordinary tools.
Have you ever seen a tire on your car get changed? They use soapy water on the bead to get the tire on the rim. If you don't like it don't watch. Your air compressor air is also full of moisture. Go to a gas station and fill your tire with air and there is moisture in it. Thanks for your input. Send me a link to your video that shows how to do it. Thanks for watching
I wouldn’t put a tube in a Carlyle Turf Saver 13x6.50x6. I’d use tire sealant like Slime. Thou there are sealants with more rust inhibiter. I’ve found a tube just triples the work of fixing a flat tire.
I have used slim but it doesn't always work. A tube always works for me. As long as you don't put a hole in it while installing it won't leak. Thanks for watching!
I just put tubes in Carlyle Turf Savers. I've had nothing but problems with Chinese tires leaking and would have paid twice the amount for a made in the US tire. I bought the Carlyle's because they were once US made and I'm hoping they are still made with quality materials and to US specs. But who knows now-a-days? The tubes are my insurance policies.
I would never deliberately trap water inside a tire. I doubt that soap is a good idea. I expect that when that soap eventually dries, it will become stuck to the tire making removal difficult if needed. Back in the day, talcum powder was sprinkled liberally inside the tire so the tube could move, spread evenly, and unfold. On those little wheels it probably doesn't matter.
Talcum powder would probably work better than soapy water. I don't keep that in my garage though. Every tire shop I've ever been to uses soapy water to help get the tire on the wheel. I don't think that little bit of soap or water hurts anything. Thanks for watching!
It's much easier to get the tube in if both sides of the bead are broken. It's not needed but if you have never done it before it makes it much easier.
Adding moisture to the inside of the tire is just asking for rust. Where’s your tire pressure gauge? Why clamp the valve stem when an inexpensive valve core tool wouldn’t risk damage by using clamping pliers?
This is the most unpleasant thing I have done. Would it have been so much more expensive to make the metal rim split into two pieces? That would have literally made it a cake walk.
They don't come with tubes in them when they are new. They are tubeless tires. But the tires dry rot or get holes in them and it's cheaper to just put a tube in them rather than buy a new tire. This wheel and tire had no tube in it.

Me again Just to add , The best tool to have when changing a tire is Common Sense

Thank you! It's really not that hard to do. Thanks for watching!
I thought he made hard work of it lol
After watching this struggle, I would definitely take my flat tire to a tire shop.😂
Wow what an easy way to put it , great Job brother!
Thank you!
Thanks for the soapy water idea, that made things very easy, and not mentioned in other tutorials on this.
Thanks for watching!
That's more the way I envisioned doing it, rather than to add the extra work of popping the tire all the way off the rim. Thanks. 👍
Thanks for watching!
Might still want to do that to make sure there aren't any thorns or stones in there, not criticizing this method, it's how I do my bike tires but just a heads up.

Thank you! Glad the video helped!
You can also use a nut and washer on the valve stem to keep it from slipping inside the tire while you're putting the tube in.
That would work too! Thanks for watching!
Now you tell me
Excellent clear demonstration. Thank you.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Done a zillion of these. Good video. The one thing I do different is start inserting the tube at the valve stem.
Thank you!
Which is exactly what he did at 2:34.
Thanks for watching!
@@Part_121 Look again. He inserted the stem first then began feeding the tube in opposite the stem. No matter. He understood what I meant.
You must work in or own a lawn machine business.
Inflate the tube out of the box 1st to see if it holds pressure then deflate it! It will give more flexibility when trying to stuff it in the rim & pull the valve stem thru & place it in evenly around!
That does help. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing. Will help save money .
Thank you for watching!
Great video! Even I can do this now.
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I appreciate the valuable information.
Thank you!
All I use is a 5/8 bolt 8 inch long and nut, put in vice and tighten it
Place wheel on bolt and tighten nut
Use a rounded large old screwdriver push down and get a bit, I put soapy water or grease to ease removing tire , use other screwdriver to hold and get other bit
By now you figured it out
Good video, showing the whole fiddly process. Just a question: why did you break the bead on both sides of the tire? Thanks!
Thank you! You really don't need to. But it gives you more room to get the tube it. Thanks for watching!
I believe it would actually give you less room.
With both sides broke you can pull up on the tire so you can put the tube in the tire. Then work the tire back on the rim. No a very good explanation but that's how I do it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks! Gonna go give it a try now. 😮😮
Good luck! Thanks for watching!
@ thanks. The area around the stem was the hardest part but I got it. Used a wrench to separate the tire from the rim to create some space to get it in. Thanks again

I like the soapy water trick
It helps a lot! Thanks for watching!
Excellent tutorial
Thank you!
Thanks mate,great video
Thank you!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
Been mounting tires for 55 yrs but if you think it’s easier then more power to you!
Nice work.
Thank you!

A zip tie on the valve stem works good too! Thanks for watching!
Good video! Thanks!
Thank you!
Why do you have to break the back Bead? from everything I see. I could do everything there if I just break the front.
did you leave the old tube in the tire?
No. There was no tube in this tire. They don't come with tubes when new. They are tubeless tires. But when they leak air it's much cheaper to just put a tube in it then it is to replace the tire.
What is the bead?
Great video, don't let these naysayers get to you. They're just looking for a little attention.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
What do you do if after inflating the tube the valve stem slips inside the hole and can't be pulled out? Just hope you never have to fill the tube with air again? After I released the vice grip it just flew back inside the tire lol
I have put a zip tie on it to hold it in place but the cause of it is not having the valve stem lined up with the whole in the rim.
Its to take one side of tire off the rim is easier to put the tube in
Thanks for watching!
That saves your fingers!
There's a problem with your method. You didn't check for objects like thorns or broken glass imbedded in the tire. You could end up with another holey tube if you don't check.
Yes your right. I have had that happen a few times!
How do you know what size tube to use
The tube will be the same size as your tire.
Why did you have to break the bead on both sides?
You don't have to. But it gives you more room to get the tube into the tire. Thanks for watching!
Thanks a bunch!
Thanks for watching!
More detail would be appreciated
Like the piece that fell off in tire
After I blew it up the stem went inside😠
But how do you know the offending thorn isn't still in there?
Not a bad video👍🏻
Thank you!
I feel like popping the tire off one side of the rim is easier. Never saw it done this way
You don't even need to break the bead on the other side. Just break one side, cut the valve out, stuff the tube in, fish the valve through, and you're done.
I was wondering about that too. All the work is done on one side only, why mess with the other side?
I didn't see you remove the old inner tube. Did you leave it inside and then put a new one in the tire?
There wasn't a tube in this tire. Thanks for watching!
Some people don’t know what the bead is
Sorry for not explaining. The bead is where the rim and tire come together.
Easier to break the bead by standing on the tire laid flat on the floor.
If you're not taking the tire off the rim You won't need special tools it's when you take the tire off the Rim
Yes your right. Thanks for watching!
Why would special tools ever be needed for those little wheels unless you consider a screwdriver a special tool?
Most people don't have a beard breaker. Or a valve core tool or a tire changer. Most people don't do it because they think you need these tools. The video was to just show you can do it with ordinary tools.
What a pain the rear. I did this twice
It's not fun but it gets easier the more you do. Thanks for watching!
And now with moisture inside the Steel rim , it will start to Rust , then develop holes in the steel rim ,
But you ain't too bright are you boy ?
Have you ever seen a tire on your car get changed? They use soapy water on the bead to get the tire on the rim. If you don't like it don't watch. Your air compressor air is also full of moisture.

@@ablgaragethe kid is probably 12 years old and will talk about his zinger on TH-cam for the next 30 years
The old tube will cut new tube
There is not an old tube in the tire.
You make it hard . Just take one side off the rim and will make it a lot easier
I think it's much harder only breaking on side of the bead. If you break both sides you have a lot more room to get the tube in. Thanks for watching!

soapy water is what tire stores use.
Really chassis grease works best
If you're putting an inner tube in, the tire has air holes in it and won't trap water.
that power caused cancer😅
That's the wrong way to do it it's easy way to take one side off rim then put tube in then put tire back on same way to do car or truck
Thanks for watching!
You have no idea, why break the bead on the backside? Not needed
It's much easier to get the tube in if both sides of the bead are broken. It's not needed but if you have never done it before it makes it much easier.
Adding moisture to the inside of the tire is just asking for rust. Where’s your tire pressure gauge? Why clamp the valve stem when an inexpensive valve core tool wouldn’t risk damage by using clamping pliers?
Where's your video if you're such an expert ? He did a great job , kept it simple and his method works fine.... No need for your negative comments !
Can't please everyone! Thanks for watching!
The mower it came off of will be long gone before the small amount of moisture in the rim makes it rust through numb-nuts
This is the most unpleasant thing I have done. Would it have been so much more expensive to make the metal rim split into two pieces? That would have literally made it a cake walk.
Split rims are so much easier!
@@ablgarage Oh they exist??? Thanks for the heads up.
Yes they exist. I have only seen them on mini bikes and go karts though.
Won’t work
Why won't it work?
Lllllllllllllllll know see
Thanks for watching!
He never took the old one out?? How do you do that?? These videos suck
They don't come with tubes in them when they are new. They are tubeless tires. But the tires dry rot or get holes in them and it's cheaper to just put a tube in them rather than buy a new tire. This wheel and tire had no tube in it.
@@ablgarage ooooohhhhhhhh
Wife used crisco greased the bead and rim area and greedy the tube completely. Only had to do this once and everything slide together quickly
Thats a good idea. Thanks for watching!
My wife used KY jelly on mine...
Great video thanks!
