This Hack SAVED My Cracked, Dry-Rotted Dolly Tire! (Last Resort Test)

What happens here

After injecting the sealant, quickly unscrew the syringe from the valve stem opening and immediately reinstall the valve stem core using the valve stem removal tool. Ensure it is tightened securely. Connect an air compressor hose to the tire valve and begin to inflate the tire to its recommended pressure. During inflation, observe if any sealant begins to ooze out of cracks or damaged areas of the tire.

Goal: Seal the tire and begin the inflation process to allow the sealant to work.
