  1. Did you know that a tire puncture may frequently be fixed rather than replaced? If you're ready to get a little greasy and put in the work, you'll be back on the road and enjoying the drive-in in no time. Always keep a kit box in your car.

  2. 5 Step-by-Step Process to Fix a Tire Puncture

  3. Detect the Leak The first step is to determine where the leak is originating from. A tire rupture does not always have an obvious reason. Anything might be a nail or a sharp item. Examine the tire thoroughly to see whether it has any holes or cuts. If the visual inspection fails, inflate the tyre to the correct pressure and listen for a hissing sound. If you can't discover the puncture, use a dish soap and water solution to spray or brush the tire. Bubbles will form at the site of the leak. Using tape, mark the place.

  4. Loosen the Lug Nuts and Jack up the Car The tire is then removed by unscrewing the lug nuts. You may do it using an impact wrench or a lug wrench. If you don't do this before jacking up the car, the nuts will spin dangerously when you try to remove them. It's time to jack up the car and remove the wheels. Parking your vehicle on a hard or flat surface prevents it from rolling! Use jack stands to keep the automobile steady. Place your auto jack in the appropriate jacking locations and raise the side you're working on.

  5. Remove the Lug Nuts and Thoroughly Clean the Hole To disconnect the wheel from the wheelbase, totally remove the lug nuts. It's now time to clean the leaking area by repeatedly inserting and removing the rasp tool from the puncture/hole.

  6. Connect the Plug Insert the plug into a hole by threading it through the centre of the insertion tool. For a better seal and simpler insertion, lubricate the plug using an adhesive such as glue or rubber cement. Allow the adhesive to set for at least one minute before inserting the plug. Remove the protruding section of the plug from the tyre surface.

  7. Pump the Tire The next step is to adequately inflate the tyre so that your car travels smoothly. After removing the floor jack, replace the wheel and tighten the lugs to the desired torque. However, if you are not confident about changing a flat tire, you can visit the nearest mechanic shop CareemAutocare. Here you can all types of tire services in Mississauga.
