Hi All , Yup , I have a rear tire with a corroded valve stem from fluid and I don't want to take it to the tire shop if I can help it . Can't afford any tire shop help this time around so what - if anything - can I do to fix it without making it worse or getting a new tube installed ? I want the fluid out but that's not in the cards anytime soon either . Any spray or something that will clean it up without eating the stem ? I can get air into it and out of it but the core leaks now that I did that . I am hesitant to remove the core because it at least keeps the fluid inside and even with no air in it it holds up the tractor ( an M ) .

By the way , my rims have a stem protector - sort of a half pipe type of thing welded around the outside of the stem hole to protect the stem from being torn off . It looks like it's done very professionally , like it was done at the time of manufacture . Anyone know if this is original or an add on ? One day I'll get a digital camera so I can post the picture that's worth a thousand words ;) . Thanks ...Randy

Jack the tractor up on that side. Then let the air out. After you have done that you should be able to remove the core and then just buy a pack of them. Almost all auto parts stores have the core. Now if your talking about the bigger part of the stem then you can also remove it and replace it. Any good tire store should have them. Your cost will be less then $5 if you can of course remove it. BTDT all the time and so far I have only lost one tube doing that and it got cut by the rim when I tried to remove the bigger part of the stem
