Hello all,
Was just wondering if there was a tire stop leak that works for loaded tires. My rear tire on my compact utility tractor is leaking slowly in a couple of areas from light dry rot and they are loaded with washer fluid. Please no comments on "doing it right", I know I need tubes but just trying to buy some time before I get it done. Thanks!

I doubt you'll find what you want in stop leak. I suspect you'd have to empty the tire first then refill with air. The tire itself may have to be dry inside. As I understand stop leak it's mostly for the road contact surface. As the vehicle is driven it spread itself there. I do not believe it creeps to the sidewall. You may need to do some research on how it works. I believe it's more for fixing and preventing puncture flats.

Anything you put in a liquid loaded tire will just be diluted by the fluid. I doubt the combination of liquids will seal any leaks.

That is the only one that I have seen for loaded tires.
