[AT] Tube problem

[Mark Greer]

Try some of that tire "Slime" green stuff. I had it put in the fronts on an
old Farmall that kept getting leaks when I used it to brushhog at my cabin.
We have lots of Hawthorne trees there and those spines are hell on tires.
Since I slimed them I have not had a leak.
