adjuster bolt plug/cap

Post by roncriswell@ymail.com » Sat Apr 19, 2014 9:17 am

Martin.....my tire was only flat on one side (heh). I have a brand new nifty tire bead thingy.....stay tuned. The last time I checked my doohickey adjuster, the plug wouldn't go back in.....so let it sit for a few days and then it would. I do need to Oder a new cap though. Rubber seems old and brittle (like me). Criswell Sent from my iPhone

The plug; It was indeed swollen.  No idea other than age for it becoming that way.revmaaatin. On Fri, Apr 18, 2014 at 10:14 AM, wrote: I have had that same problem with my plug (cap) Bogdan.

A while ago time flies mine seems to have swelled. For several years it's been  impossible to fit it into the opening all the way. It hangs in there, on an angle, looking like it's soon to fall out. When I first noticed this I was sure, the next time I looked, it would be gone. For some reason it's still there. Has any one else had this experience ? I guess I should just order a new one. Or .forget about it and worry about more important things like the planet or the deficit.  Bogdan
