Thread: Thanks John Tins for your assistance it was really appreciated.

Mario and John Tins,
With regard to the valve on the little vehicle tyres , try screwing it out a few turns before attaching the pump, then screw back in after inflation.

Thanks. Unfortunately we didn’t have a Schrader tool available or we would have tried that.

The Technician came but had to take the wheel away to get the special bead reseated on these wheels.
They are also designed to run at 4psi and not to be altered, hence why we couldn't get air in. This is to give the tyre a wide foot print to enable to crawl over obstacles.

So you're stuffed if you get a flat until a "technician" can come? Great.

the recommended tyre pressure for those AT tyres is 3.6 psi, but because l'm a heavy bugger they set it 4.5 psi.

yeah that's what I thought.
I purchased RACV wheel chair assist, so it this happens out and about they can come to the rescue.
