So I decided to put the kids pool under the tire and fill it with water today. Turns out I previously installed a plug in this tire last year lol. ripped out the old plug and put a new one in. Put some heat to the new plug to make it really tacky. I’ll know in the morning forsure if that was the problem…completely forgot about that.

Ya, the plugs come too dry from the factory - need some extra lube ... lol.

Problem solved….for now lol. thanks for everyone’s help in trying to diagnose my slow leak problem. I completely forgot I had put a plug in it last year and only noticed it while spinning my tire in the water…which wasn’t bubbling btw. I just saw it and thought, that sure does look like a plug and then realized that has to be where the leak is coming from. Anyways, it’s holding air now! 👌🏻

When using a consumer patch kit like the ones from Canadian Tire or Princess I like to grab an extra tube of rubber cement. If any comes with the kit it's usually too little to be much use. Slather it all over the install tool before and after fitting the plug on it. The cement obviously helps the plug seal. But it also helps the tool slide out without pulling plug back out. Trim the tag ends and burn and gtg. The inside patch best way to go of course, but it's hard to fit tire spoons into the glove box lol.

Extra oil, spare belt, gloves, tools etc, it was an annoyance - now I take my bag off and bring it in with me and set it with my bucket.

I still have mine and use it often, problem is all these wheel/tire combo's are getting wider and taller, they don't fit so well in the tank.

HA HA HA .... i didnt even post the price 😜 Thanks Strong Farmer .... this sled is like brand new, 15,800 but we could probly talk a bit cheers

You making fun of my windshield now.....lol It really is not that bad, it is the 14 inch with the side deflectors that actually surprisingly works pretty good. And besides, I blew my budget on my sledding extras on new shocks, a couple new LinQ bags and fuel caddy.....with out one mile on the actual snow yet.....lol

Yep cross the bridge in town. Run out through millennium park and them take the sidewalk past the hotel. Gas is after it. not the most accessible, but it will work. You can usually get gas in lake st peter.

Trading post stopped selling fuel at road? They closed in winter I assume now too. Looked pretty dead last time I went thru but they made me a burger and still had fuel. That’s was 2018 I think.
