When I was a teenager, I worked for the local Case IH dealership. A guy had brought in a IH 544 and I was told to fill his rear tires with calcium cloride. I did the usual, I pulled around to the side of the building and I thought I had the valve stem in the upper most position. I killed the tractor and jumped off.
