Farmall C update next issue

smcIND · Oct 8, 2017

I have the fan assembly replaced and now back where I was. I notice the rear tires that are loaded at seeping thru the sidewalls.
What is the best way to get rid of the calcium ? I plan on removing tires after and cleaning the rims
and repainting them inside and out. Tires will be replaced if I can find enough money for that. 1 tire is cut and bulging
the side wall. Also where is the best price tires to be found.
Thanks in advance
Steve

Take the tractor to a 'farm' tire store. have them pump it out.They can safely dispose of it. Probably cost less than $25.The "cheapest" is usually always your local tire shop.You buy 'online,you pay freight,you will have more than just buying local.And....If there is a problem,'online',you're on your own. Local,they can help.Deal with people you know.

It might not be practical to haul it off to a farm tire shop, and IMHO I would get that bulging/broken tire emptied ASAP, else you may have a mess on your hands. For sure do not park it next to anything metal, because if it blows, it will blow rust-inducing CaCl solution all over it.

You can get an adapter at most farm supply stores that will allow you to connect a garden hose to the tractor tube after you remove the valve stem. That would allow you to pump or gravity feed most of the fluid out into a (plastic) barrel or buckets.

CaCL solution was sprayed on dirt/gravel roads in the summer time to keep the dust down.
