I have seen redneck tire mounting done before, and it is a pretty neat way to seat a tire. I have a buddy that had to do it on a trail one time when he aired down a little too much and lost his tire off the rim.

 

Use a string of toilet paper for the wick.

 

All good advice, but I'm just gonna wait and replace the tires. Should only be a few days.

It works better if you spray the ether all the way around the rim, instead of in one area.

 

When i worked at the ATV place the ATV tires are hard to seat so we used either alot, it was fun to scare to other guys, I always had fire crackers I brought back from Myrtle beach one yr, G

Hahaha! Good one, Charlie!

 

While I did nothing anywhere near as exciting as playing with fire, I did manage to verify all the new wiring on the '46 as going to the right places and then, finally fired it back up! It seems to run better with the right wire going everywhere. Now to find an exhaust manifold that doesn't leak...

 

Seems like everyone is being somewhat productive today, good job Lee. I'm really looking forward to seeing some video's of your pickup!

 

Video? Its not like it will break the speed of sound or anything. Didn't I post a video of the first time I started it on here somewhere? Maybe on the '47 and older... Time to go look..

Found it!

COOL! Did you convert it to a 12v system?

 

Evening guys. Just dropping in quick before I hit the rack. Gotta be up around 3:30 or so, to get us all to the airport, and off to see Mickey. I'll be stopping in from time to time.

Lee, cool video!

 

Good night Nebraska!

 

Good early morning Nebraska..
