Nitrogen, that thing is great for popping a tire back on or running an impact.

Ether and a burning stick works too.......... :shock:
For re-seating a bead anyway.
Probably not so good on an impact.......... :mrgreen:

Thanks, guys.. Nitro's right its nitrogen, and it has saved the day more than once. It'll run an impact out in the woods enough to change a couple tires, and I can pop a tire back on the wheel with it still on the buggy in about a min.

sorry Rick, I don't think i'm gonna make it this week end. it's upposed to rain most of the week end. I don't want to get mud on it. :lol:

And its not purple!!! (where's the little smiley with the middle finger when I need it.)

Took the buggy out this week end to haspin. Everything did good. There was a few problems with it. The front tire were to big, I had to switch back to the smaller ribbed ties. I also broke a front light, And my gas pedal kept sticking. Other than that it did real good.
A couple pics.
