Tire pressure

[smoothie17]

Added air to rear tire on back of my Kubota B2910. Inadvertently, I over inflated by about 5 pounds. When I tried to bleed the excess, only the water / sodium chloride mixture came out. The valve stem is positioned at the top of the tire so I thought only air would escape.

Any ideas?

Thanks !!!

Sounds like you may have a little more liquid in the tire than you should.

I would not worry about it...but if I were to worry, I would jack the tractor up, with the valve stem at the top, and let all the air and liquid out, and then put in the amount of air pressure that I wanted.

Now if you are getting a little liquid with the air, and not all liquid, then it is probably not an issue at all...

Thanks for the reply. Called the dealer and he said just bleed the tire until I get down to the desired pressure. I probably lost a quart or two but now I'm OK. I'll know next time to add air slower for sure.

How do you like your B2910?
