I posted here about a week or so ago (can"t find it now) about a "temporary" fix to get a rear tractor tire to hold air long enough to get it home. The valve-stem to tube connection was bad and air came out almost as fast as it went in. Someone suggested spray foam insulation. While looking for the foam I noticed some marine "goop" adhesive. I put some "goop" around the valve stem/tube joint (the rim is completely gone there) and then sprayed foam around it the following day. Still leaked but not as bad but couldn"t get much air into it out in the field. Pulled it up to the guy"s garage and filled the tire with a compressor. "Over filled" it a bit and it looked like it was holding ok so we started to tow it the 5 miles to my place. 2 days later and its still full of air! thanks
