I do know that I drove around in my Samurai for a long time with two pieces of dangling bacon. <br /><br />Aaron, I wonder if the hole was too big. I saw where the instructions said that sometimes two may be required. <br /><br />I wish I woulda poked a hole in a less worn-out tire.

On one lap I flatted with a hole in the middle. It was actually more of a slow leak where you could see the stans slowly coming out. I plugged the hole, but within 3 miles the orange cord came back out, and I ran the next 2 miles until I swapped wheels. <br /><aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04880560298321463299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1147261121141428221.post-25317284692449016422012-03-06T10:08:28.663-05:002012-03-06T10:08:28.663-05:00It's amazing how many shops have no clue what ...It's amazing how many shops have no clue what I'm talking about when I ask for this....Rigidnsinglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11017828086991100657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1147261121141428221.post-14741475896718106762012-03-06T09:10:42.158-05:002012-03-06T09:10:42.158-05:00Kshart, that's actually how I managed to get i...Kshart, that's actually how I managed to get it in there and also when I realized that preloading would be key for racing porpoises.dickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03401580852665925613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1147261121141428221.post-45702014866968832952012-03-06T08:38:38.578-05:002012-03-06T08:38:38.578-05:00I agree with Shart.
