I've accidentally swallowed some Scrabble tiles. My next crap could spell disaster.
One flat repaired last year. Slow leak.

Slimed them both. Oh, both were frontzies.
On the mower. One tire just about came off the rim.
Last year I needed a strong blast of air to get it to seat. Rode up to the gas station. Paid 75 freequin cents for a small amount of air.

I have had a slow leak on the back tire for 4 years now. I am glad I bought that air compressor. I ride out on the street to turn around, like Tony does. I live in a rural area where the speed limit is 55 MPH. My neighbor lady was killed 3 years ago crossing the street to get her mail. The excitement makes me giddy.

Okay let me see if I understand this. You have a yard large enough to require a riding lawnmower yet you don't have a garage or shop with an air compressor. Heck I've always had an compressor. The one I'm using now is a 30 year old craftsman that runs on 220. Man they sure built things to last back then! its a twin cylinder 2 stage that has no problem keeping up with my sand blaster. This thing is so quite you can't hear it in the house. Unlike my neighbors Harbor Fright and tool special which sounds like a freight train yet puts out half the CFM and no where near the pressure....
Anyhow Wheels falling off a mower doesn't really inspire a lot of confidence in the mechanical abilities of the individual responsible for its maintenance![]()
