I have an ASW-15B. *Anyone have any good advice to make sure I safely and securely install a new "tube" inside my tire? *The tire tread looks good, it just needs air everytime I show up to fly it. I would hate to blow a flat on takeoff then have to reject or worse end up in a ground loop due to a blowout....could happen. *If anyone has any steps, measures or procedures that they can pass on, I would really like to know. *I have never put a tube on an airplane before, I have put tubes on bicycle tires, which I imagine the basic basic steps are roughly the same. *Any knowledge....please advise. SA What everybody else said - plus I'd suggest coating the tube and inside of the tire with talc to prevent the tube from sticking. That helps the tube even itself out reducing the chance of wrinkles and pinching. |
