What is this Al??

Al, I don't have one for you, but, if you use CaCl please use a tube in the tire. CaCl will eat the steel roms. I've seen many rims turn to powder after several years of exposure. It is the same $--t they put on the roads.There are alternstives, some us RV antifreeze, or beet juice (yes the vegitable). The tool" you are looking fore is easy too build. Google "tire bong"

You said Bong...buwa ha ha ha...OK will do

Ya I know about tubes...looking into beet juice...or Rim Guard too...

Landlord has a nice selection of tyres and we are doing math, that the cost of repairs would warrant a pump and me doing the work...so he can pay for a pump and I can work it off....then I can do other tyres for other farmers too and make some $$$$$!

A small all plastic air operated diaphragm pump would work. http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200375488_200375488
I have used a 4 wheeler sprayer with a 12 volt shurflo pump to fill tires.

I use a pump for a small (200 gallon size) sprayer. They already have a coupler for the 540 pto. Make a bracket or use a piece of chain I secure it to the draw bar so it can't spin wild. Then take two 5/8ish barbed fittings and put a garden hose for the suction into your drum or what ever the fluids in.

On the pressure side they make a handy fitting that attaches a regular garden hose female thread to a tractor valve stem.

The beautiful part about those pumps is they normally have an internal pressure relief and won't pump over 10ish psi.

When your done hose everything out, spray down all surfaces and it should all fit in a 5 gallon bucket.

Be careful, if you have the slightest cut on your hands and arms, the calcium WILL FIND IT. The burning ends with water though.

Also if your tractor is old enough to not have live PTO (ie john Deere pre 1960's or farmall pre 1958) be careful the tire doesn't spin while it's jacked up trying to fill it.

No going with Air operated pump...not a PTO one...

Need be able to do repairs simply for landlord and others....PTO means running tractor...yeeash....nope not for me.

Looking like it will be a go ahead...he just payed over 500 for 3 tyre repairs and sees the value in having his own pump and me fix..

May try to get lend of cash for tyre machine and balancer!
