Tyre Puncture Repair Kit Tutorial
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 11. 2018
- Fixing a puncture in a tubeless car tyre using a puncture repair kit (tire plug kit). In this video I am only demonstrating how to use the repair kit. I am not recommending the use of the kit as a replacement for a professional tyre shop repair but as a temporary repair to get you to a tyre shop and have it patched professionally. At the end of the video you can see what the process looks like from inside the tyre. The tyre in this video had no air in it so it was safe to take the screw out using a screwdriver. If there is air in the tyre, get a good grip on the screw or nail with a pair of pliers and carefully pull it it out. I would highly recommend wearing safety goggles as you remove it. Thanks for watching. Please comment, like and subscribe !.

No nonsense, no background music, no garbage, straight to the point. Haven’t watched such a quality video ever on CZcams. With this one video you got another subscriber in your bucket. Thank you very much! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you very much ! :)

Dude - awesome "from inside the tire" cam shot! Actually helped me understand how the tool works...
Thanks for watching ! :)

I've been always wondering how it work from the inside. Now I do 😁
Very easy 👍
To all you big annoying CZcamsrs who make watching a video a job and a half to find the information WE'RE ALL looking for; this is how its done. Straight to the point and no bullcrap involved. I'll always come back to videos like these and support these videos over the other rubbish saturating the internet. Just take a look at all the comments. This is how it's done.
Thank you very much ! 👍
I'll echo that. I've lost the will to live half way through many a CZcams tutorial listening to some prat who doesn't know the meaning of "Getting to the point"
I've been doing this for over 40 years. Never had a problem. My dad taught me it. He never had a problem. Works every time
Yeah, it's pretty much that easy. As another reviewer has stated, it's easier to make this repair when the tire has pressure in it. You can make this repair without even taking the tire off if you don't mind laying on your side, partially under the car/truck while you make the repair. A couple of tips-- If the hole is small and you can't find it, mix 5% dishwashing liquid (Dawn, etc.) in water and slowly pour it over the tire with the tire inflated. The leak will cause a mound of bubbles which will be easy to see. The purpose of the reamer is to clean and slightly enlarge the hole. Don't ream any more than you need to in order to insert the plug. If on your first try you push too hard and the plug goes all the way into the tire, join the club. Everybody has done that. No worries, just put another plug on and try again. If you can't get the plug threaded thru the plug tool eye, take a flat screwdriver, insert it into the opening and very slightly pry it open. Then slide the plug in, pull the plug thru with pliers and remove the screwdriver. Use plenty of glue when coating the plug. Sometimes when removing the plug tool you'll pull the plug out. If that happens, try again and this time before pulling out use the pliers to bracket the plug tool and push down on the plug ends and tire face while removing the plug tool.
This method usually works for good, but not always. An inside patch is better but it isn't perfect either. And, this method can address the growing problem of tire repair stores refusing to patch a hole that's even slightly close to the sidewall. A hole in the sidewall is not patchable and I agree the tire is toast. But more and more tire stores are telling a customer that a hole is "too close" to the sidewall and they need a new tire, when in fact they just want to sell you a new tire, or better yet, a whole new set.
Thanks for the information !
Has to be a good quality liquid soap, some cheap ones wont even bubble,as I've found out !!
Why not manoeuvre the vehicle so the puncture hole is on top so you dont need to lie down
It is illegal or against policy for a tyre repair company to try and sell a new tyre instead of repairing it. They don't try that on company or fleet vehicles.They are not allowed.
@@algorithm6291 the front wheels can be turned and pointed out, if it's a rear wheel you have the wheel arch in the way
Nice.. I wasn't expecting the view from inside it's simply awesome.
Thanks for watching !
Dude, this was one of of the most straightforward, simple, informative videos of the process I have ever watched! Thanks. Looking forward to fix my tire.
Thanks for watching ! :)
Looking forward to fix your tire 😂
I like the fact that you put on formal shoes for this! Truly professional 😀😀
LOL I even put on fresh socks :)
@@iamnid It was moss, not poop . I didn't want to dirty my dress shoes lol :)
This works, even did it with a new tyre and drove it for 60 000 km
The best video of the bunch. Love it!
I watched them all, and watching this one did it for me.
1) remove the screw or nail
2) use the reamer to (a) clean the hole and (b) make sure the hole is big enough for step 3.
cleaning means if there were oil or grease, etc. you want to scrape that off,
you want the hole to be pure tire rubber only, to ensure a good seal,
if the hole is too small for step 3, you don't want to find out too late,
so you want to mimic step 3, slowly push the reamer into the hole, and quickly pull out,
if you can do this, then step 3 should go OK
3) thread the plug into the pusher tool, coat the plug with rubber cement,
slowly push the plug into the hole about 2/3 in, then QUICKLY pull the tool out,
the pusher tool has an opening at the tip, allowing the plug to disengage with the tool,
I have read in other links that the rubber cement is not necessary for sealing,
it is used only as a lubricant for the plug to slide in,
some plug kits don't even include the rubber cement,
4) cut off excess plug, and re-inflate,
nowhere do they tell you if you have to wait between steps 3 and 4,
not necessary to trim off neatly, the road will trim off,
5) if still leaks, repeat steps 2-4
Thank you for not putting any stupid music, lame jokes, dumb comments, or promotions for your twitter in there. Great video.
Thanks for watching ! 👍
I've just repaired my rear motorcycle tyre with one of these plug kits. Seeing the internal shot gives me more peace of mind that its worked. Great video
Thanks for watching !
2 years on and I’m using this video. Exactly what I needed. Straight to the point.
Thanks for watching ! :)
It's been said by most but this was quick, simple and thorough. The reverse view from inside the tire was a gem.
Thanks for watching !
Brilliant. No music, no talking. No nonsense straight to the point demonstration video. A pleasure to watch. Once again Brilliant.
Thank you very much 👍
I’ve been using these since 1988, approximately 30 times, and each time the tyre lasted its entire life without further intervention to any of the plugs. If done properly, no leaks, no issues - follow the manufacturers instructions precisely.
Have you done this kind of respiring near the shoulder of any of the tyres and how long do they last usually? Every tyre shop I spoke to would just refuse to repair if the puncture is outside the central 1/3 width.
@@thisisarandomstring mate they work on the edge of tyre just as well. Don't get robbed by tyre man
@@thisisarandomstring That’s for warranty purposes they don’t do it. The tire manufacturer voids the warranty. Sometimes shoulder patches leak and sometimes they don’t. It doesn’t hurt to try and it certainly isn’t dangerous like so many clueless people say.
@@thisisarandomstring a plug will outlive a tire easily.
I followed the instructions, and see from this that I did it wrong! The instructions got my fingers covered in glue and no glue on the strips, just the needle.
At last...an instructional video straight to the point about what is needed to be done, and not about the person and their tools, and where they got them, and what to use and not to use etc etc etc
I normally have to fast forward youtube clips to about 70% the way through just to get to the point.
Well done and thanks heaps
You're very welcome, thanks for watching ! :)
No music or bs speeches, just straight to the point so we can go an fix our tires. Thank you much, I’m now a new subscriber
Thank you very much ! :)
when you cut away the excess make sure you cut every tiny bit you can, or the spinning of the tire will pull the plug out! only 55 years experience.
U r correct sr.
I use a die grinder with a fiber foam pad on it and buff it flush. The friction helps melt it in place.
It's not the centrifugal force that pulls that plug out, it's due to the tire skidding on the road due to braking. If it's due to the spinning of the tire then the plug was barely in to begin with.
Thanks! That's a useful tip. 👍
Hard to do if the puncture is between tread runners
I own a 32 ton tipper truck and these plugs are a god send! I carry an air line and can pull a nail out, do the repair and blow tyre back up to 110psi in ten minutes.

Thanks for the inside of the tire view. Im always worried that my plug is not in the tire far enough. Now I see that it only needs a small amount poking through. Nice.
Thanks for watching :)
As a visual learner best tutorial ever, straight to the point. Loved the interior view, I was curious on what it would look like from the inside. Thank you!
Thank you very much ! :)
I used to pay 100 to 150 RS to Puncture repair guy for such an easy job.Bought this kit & air pump & I fix it myself now. Thanks buddy!!
Thanks for watching ! :)
Thank you. I have zero mechanical skills, but I just used this video to repair a tire. Thanks for taking the time to make it. 😎
You're very welcome :)
One of the best videos, really liked to see that the plug folding again onto itself increasing even more the sealing pressure around the hole,and forming a head inside...
Thanks for watching ! :)
No hype, to the point, clear and silent video. The shot showing the inside of the tyre is very innovative.
Thanks for the nice video.
Thank you very much !
The view from inside the tire was the most genius and helpful thing ever. 99% of us are wondering is this even work, and if so, how? And you just answered it without saying a word. Thanks pal, subscribed
You're very welcome, thanks for watching !
one of the best instruction videos on CZcams, clear and straight to the point and no stupid music, external and internal views. 10*/10*
Thank you very much ! :)
Great. Thanks for silent and let action do talking tutorial. Highly appreciated .
Thanks for watching !
I don't understand the downvotes. For a baboon like me, this was the perfect demonstration. Many thanks
lol thank you ! :)
I recon People who didn’t watch till the end click the unlike button. Appreciate that some one took the time to do this. Thanks you.
Thanks for watching :)
I used these on a tyre and did burnouts, no problem. Always carry them on my car as if you see a nail or screw in your tyre you can just pull into a servo and fix on the spot without removing tyre. Never any issues with them.
Clear, well-illustrated, and to the point. The view from the inside was a great touch--I'd wondered how the tool released the plug, and your video shows it.
Thanks for watching :)
This is peak CZcams! Thank you very very much, Sir!
Appreciate you very much. I was too embarrassed to ask anyone how, so thank you for walking us through. Saved me $40, thank you and God bless you and yours.
Great video. Been doing this for years exactly accept no cement. I leave the tire on the vehicle positioning just right for me to work on. Fill the tire with air and locate object causing leak. Remove object and perform these exact steps. Grab my air compressor fill tire to proper psi. Not one has ever failed me. This method makes quick work.
The cement is probably a good idea - it's not glue in the normal sense; it contains a vulcanising agent that melts the rubber it touches and then evaporates out, so it acts like a weld. Without it, in theory the plug could be blown out... but the comments don't agree, so it's probably not critical on a regular family car.
To say that you were in a rush your video showed us better than other tyre repair videos
And yes after watching this I did go out and buy a repair kit
Since it's already had over 5 million views, your video is obviously pretty helpful, but in case u see these comments, just wanted to say THANKS BROTHER! that was an awesome, super helpful video...no talking kinda makes it EASIER to follow, and adding the inside the tyre view REALLY makes a difference, as gives us a proper idea about how it all works, top job, thanks again man, you've just saved me $200!!
You're very welcome, thanks for watching ! :)
Thanks pal! Recently I have had a flat tire caused by a screw lying on the parking lot's ground. I'm going to order a repair kit and I'll to do it by my own this time.
As with the other comments - no nonsense video, an easy job made clear for first timers and just followed your procedure today. well done !
Thank you ! 👍
Found a nail clipper once in a tire. The customer love it when you give them what punctured the tire.
Perfect instructional video.
I don't know what you look like, what you sound like, anything about your sense of humor, what you do for a living, if you enjoy shoving sticky rubbers into things....but I know how to fix my tire.
Thx
Thanks lol 😆
The inside shot was like Hollywood, you should be a director, who would have though to see it from the tyres point of view . Deep pensive and thought provoking. Must see
lol thank you ! 😄
finally used one of these today after driving around with a screw in the tyre.. these things are amazing and i wish i had known about these like 20 years ago
Just attempted this yesterday on a puncture and was successful. Fantastic innovation
Liked for showing it from inside the tyre.
Thanks !
Great video that actually is what it states in the title with no waffle. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for watching !
Very nice video. Specially liked the last part showing how it works. The rubber stick compound have really amazing rheological properties. We can see that the compound flows when a high shear is applied as the needle is pulled out quickly. Really interested to see if the same happens when we pull out slowly. If not, then shear thinning is very critical for the success of the product. The video is also very useful for demonstrating to Polymer students on the principle of Rheology. Thank you.
Thank you very much ! :)
what if we did cut that strip after applied
These things are awesome. I haven't changed a tire in over 20 years. Keep a kit in the truck at all times and have had many a flat out in the wilderness
20 years, dude tyres has a life.span
@@Anonymous-ho1mt multiple tires, multiple trucks
@@waltersmith6100 you got me in first half, not gonna lie :p
All along I’ve been paying $10 for tire repair when I can buy a kit for $7 and repair it myself several times with it. I thought there was a more complex way and for safety it needs a professional repair unlike a bike tire which I learned to change for a long time. I’ve seen the shop do it and it’s exactly this way so I finally did this myself. I had a rental that needed tire repair so I used it as my first test. Great inside view so I feel an assurance how it’ll hold up. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for watching ! :)
Great video! I love how you captured every single step and also a bonus clip at the end. I repaired a tire before but was looking for a refresher. Thanks!
You're welcome, thanks for watching !
View from inside the tyre was a good idea, I wasn't too confident how good it would be but it bunches up like a mushroom.
Thank you :)
I had one of these kits, but was never sure how to use it. Thanks for the clear and easy explanation!
You're very welcome :)
Great video minus any BS. Liked it. Specially the bonus view from inside.
I guess in practice the tyre would still be attached to the car and inflated when we do this.
Thanks. Yes as long as you can access the puncture site you can repair it with the wheel on the car
I haven't had a flat tire in many years. Thought I'd better take a refresher course. I normally carry two fresh repair kits and an air compressor in my vehicle. You nailed it......... thank you.......
You're very welcome, thanks for watching :)
We have a truck at our work, 20+ plugs, some holes are so big has 3 plugs. Holds air at 110 PSI fine no leaks. Been over 1 year solid.
These were meant to be temporary only, dont get people killed due to your tyres please
@@vsmh96 I have done hundeds and never a leak or fault. It is a good system as long as you use cement.
@@vsmh96 Gotta take that up with the boss, I'm just the mule.
mrnice88x tire plugs are dangerous..if they drove on the flat long then the inside of the sidewalls are thin and a bunch of rubber shavings came off inside the tire..so you could plug it and wouldn’t even notice the sidewall being thin and could have a blowout and then the shop getting sued
@@rahrah8076 Fella, if it's your own motor and you know that you didn't drive it, then happy days. I wouldn't recomend it for some thick tart that asked you to do it because people kept telling her tyres is flat for last 20 miles.
Excellent demo. The picture quality and the steps are clearly shown. Very nice. Thank you.
Thank you very much ! :)
That last shot from inside the tire was BRILLIANT! Bravo!
Thank you ! 👍
Well done video! To use this type of kit the tire can stay on the vehicle because the tools are small which is a HUGE plus to me. I carry a plug kit and 12V compressor for when there is no power for my big compressor on the road. This is the only type of plug kit I have ever used on pickup tires here in the states. It has never failed me and,working construction site with dropped nails/screws,I have driven unknowable miles on plugged tires over the decades.
The only exception was when I got a 1/4" concrete form tie in the right rear tire one winter. On the 2nd attempt I had to use two plugs in that hole to totally stop the leak. I didn't feel so confident in it's long term use so I replaced the tire sometime soon after that night. That night was -20F. I fixed it at a friends country house out in the cold wind after dropping off another friend who worked for me,then drove 32 miles home hoping I wouldn't have to stop some random place and do it again. Talk about relief to see the lights of home! That double plug did not fail,I just didn't trust it for the long term.
I do like the looks of some of the other type UK kits I see,I like them alot, but they look to be best used with the rim and tire off which would slow me down too much as a road repair. I would sure consider them for home use though!
Great video!!! Straight to the point without BS and showing the inside process is the icing on the cake!
Thank you very much ! :)
I’m so happy you made this, I got real high and wanted to see what it looked like from the inside, great job .
Glad you liked it!
This is awesome. I was pretty sure I knew how to do this, I've seen my brother do it with the tire still on the car. But I just bought a used minivan that came with no spare tire. I already had a tubeless repair kit so I tossed that in the back and bought a 12V compressor. Unless I end up with something severe like a sidewall blowout I feel fully prepared to fix the flat and keep going! Well done.
Thanks for watching !
No talking and straight to the point. Thanks mate
Thanks for watching !
Applying the rubber glue is used as lubricant for getting the strip in the hole.
I love the video showing how it worked inside the tire … Thank You ...
Thanks for watching :)
That's how tight my wife was when we first started dating. 15 years and 3 kids later, not to much. I miss those days! Nice video by the way.
No blah blah blah.. Straight to the point - Thank you very much. 😎👍
Thanks for watching :)
Great video! The internal view is the money shot! Thanks.
Thanks very much ! :)
I had a nail go in a tire head first. The hole was so large, I need 3 of the strips to stop the leak. Since I was planning on getting new tires soon, I thought this would be a really good experiment. The 3 plugs held for 3 months without losing any air, that was when I got my new tires. I was truly surprised. I wouldn't recommend using that many, but it worked extremely well.
How did you get three strips through the eye of that needle tool
@@lucienpetersen9010 One at a time. First one didn't do much. Second slowed the leak quite a bit and the third one sealed it. Sorry, I was a little vague.
@@OldJoe212 lets hope that i will never have to use this newly aquired knowledge. Thanks Joe!
Wow it's amazing how you got the camera inside the tubeless tire . First I have seen how sticky rubber cement gets molded in between the holes so perfectly bonded in a sticky fibers.
Thanks to you I repaired my own puncture. THANK YOU!
You're welcome, thanks for watching !
OH YEAH!!! Nice internal shot!! I've always wondered why the patch doesn't come out with the tool when you quickly pull out. I didn't realize the end of the tool opens!! Nice video.
Thanks very much ! :)
Excellent video.. brief, to the point and the end shot from inside the tyre explained it all in an instant..
Thanks from the UK for posting
You're very welcome, thanks for watching !
So I was sitting here wondering why this had 54k likes, and then I got to the end. The extra mile makes a difference.

You said in the description below that: it’s temporary solution to get you to the garage for professional repair ! So I found screw in my tyre went to the professional tyres garage and they used this kit !!
Really ?, I've heard some garages use this method and they may even last a long time, but I would personally rather have it patched for safety.
Use these all the time brilliant bits of kit, get you out of some right jams.
Nice video mate, I’ve been repairing my tyres the same way for about 15 years and although there is a lot of discussions about this method I never had a problem 👍👍👍
Thanks !, me neither :)
Always go to professional to check the tire form inside it maybe damaged.

@@erenoglu 200, What are you trying to do, kill yourself or others on the highway?. How old are you? No adult in their right state of mind would even say anything out that. hat 9fast.Are you even human?
Best video on this matter!!! Straight and to the point.
Thank you !
Absolutely top notch video! No nonsense! Very informative! Thank you very much!
Thanks for watching !
Over 4 million views in just 2 years. Wow. That is amazing
Ive found that its much easier getting the plug in if you let the tire go somewhat flat first (which you did). Its counter-intuitive while fixing a leak to let even more air out, but without a pressurized tire, the hole can expand and stretch much easier.
Best video I've watched in awhile. Straight to the point, every single step. Bet he wishes he used a screw gun taking that screw out 😂, I wish all videos were this well done.
Thanks very much ! :)
this is the only video that shows the view of what happens from inside a tire. it answered the question of what the rubber strip looks like inside after you pull out the insertion rod! thank you for the works! P.S. I think the final cut should be flush with the tire surface.
very useful to tyre inside view
Thanks for watching !
I have used these for years, they work great. Never put one in a sidewall though, maybe only to get to a Station. Make sure you ream the hole well or you will not be able to get the new one in. Use the glue but if you don't have any that's okay. Note: always get the upgraded T handle so you can push harder, the screwdriver looking ones are useless for pushing in
Yeah, the screwdriver ones only work on riding mower & moped tires (tyres).
As I have seen the process via other visual footage. What is better with this one, is at the end is SEEN what it looks like inside. Nice.
Thanks very much :)
No time wasting. Step by step easy instructions.
Thanks for watching !
The view from the inside was a great important show --I wondered how the tool released the plug, and your video shows it.
Thanks for watching :)
Yeah..same question I had
Wow that shot from the inside was genius
Thank you very much ! :)
For years I have been using this method to patch the tires of my car .
Thanks buddy
Thanks for watching !
Thanks for this I had no idea how to use the kit.
You're welcome !
Did it once to my Harley's back tire. Got the job done and allowed me to ride 8 hrs to get a new tire.
It could have went a lot longer than 8 hours
Well done. Informative, straight to the point. Nothing excessive. Again, well done!!!
Thanks very much ! :)
