How to Fix a Flat Tire

A Finding the Leak

1 Inflate the tire In order to find a leak the tire must be

properly pressurized You should inflate your tire with air until

it reaches the appropriate pressure (measured in psi) specified in your vehicle’s service manual

Translate to Vietnamese

2 Visually inspect the tire Before moving on to more time

consuming techniques, you should take a moment to look at your tire If you notice any holes, cuts, or objects protruding from tire then you have found your leak

3 Listen for a hissing sound Even if you aren't able to see

the problem right away you might be able to hear it A hissing sound is a clear sign that air is leaking from your tire, and can help you locate the leak

4 Feel around the tire for air If you run your hands over

the tire carefully you may feel the leak even if you can't hear

or see it

5 Mix soap and water If you followed the steps above and

you were not able to easily find the leak don’t fear Spraying the tire with a little soapy water or window cleaner may help

If you see bubbling at any place on the surface of the tire then you have found your leak

6 Cover the tire with the soap and water solution You

can use a spray bottle to spray the tire, or if a spray bottle isn’t available you can just pour the mixture over the tire

7 Watch for bubbles As air escapes the tire and

encounters the soapy water mixture it will form soap bubbles

If you notice the soapy water bubbling at any particular place

on the tire, you have found your leak

B Fixing the Leak with Tire Puncture Sealants

1 Read the directions on the can of sealant you have brought Various manufacturers have slightly different steps

and required amounts you should put in However, there are some steps that are generally the same

2 Pull out any object that has punctured your tire This

may or may not be necessary depending on why your tire is flat

3 Turn the wheel until the valve is at the top of the wheel Unscrew your valve cap You will put the sealant in the

same way that you would inflate your tire with air

4 Attach the nozzle of the product to the valve stem Once

you have it on securely, press a button to release the contents

5 Drive your car You need to drive your car to rotate the tire

This allows the sealant to be distributed evenly inside the tire and prevents it from forming a heavy lump inside the tire

6 Replace your tire Tire sealants are great to bail you out in

a major crisis Unfortunately they are only good for 3 days or

100 miles, whichever comes first You should replace your tire before then to avoid possible problems
