A few weeks ago I informed a friend of mine (the one with the Accord at 11,000 miles on conventional oil) that his tire was low. When I inflated it, I noticed it was leaking around the bead.
I told him to bring it to walmart or any tire shop and have them reseal the bead with some bead sealant.
Last night I got a call that he thought his tire was flat.
Uh ... I'd say so
So I used some starting fluid to try to seat the bed, but didn't want to use too much on the alloy wheel. Ended up using a rachet strap with my compressor and got it seated.
He brought it to walmart and got it sealed up around the bead.
