Reply To: Tire tubes problems

[Stuart Blair]

Hello George,

Would you please advise the name of the supplier you obtained the light-duty radial truck tubes from? And where were they made?

We plan to follow Greg’s recommendation and have already obtained the high-temp HVAC tape; but there’s no point in replacing thin Chinese tubes with more of the same.

An old car friend who owned a Goodyear store years ago also recommended using generous amounts of talcum powder when the tires are being mounted onto the rim.

We’ve had 3 flats on our ’36; one more and I might just qualify for an Indy pit crew!

Thanks-Stu
