[ "Five easy steps to fix a punctured tyreYour vehicle is nothing but a machine that is prone to malfunctions and breakdowns, and you must be equipped to deal with such scenarios to get out of trouble. One of such problems that owners face on the road is punctured tyres. We can never be sure about the driving surface and what it entails; sometimes, the loose gravel and tiny sharp objects impact the outer wall and cause slow punctures.Fixing a puncture is a handy skill and doesnt involve many technical details. If you have the right tools and some basic working knowledge of those tools, you can quickly fix your punctured tyre and hit the road again. Here is an article on five easy steps to fix a punctured tyre.Park the car safelyWhen your Tyres Bredbury lose pressure, the handling is distorted, and the vehicle tends to move sideways. As soon as you encounter this driving disturbance, pull up the car on the side of the road, apply the handbrakes and ask the passengers to deboard. Now, assess the situation and locate the point of puncture.Once you are safely parked, look for some bricks or medium-sized stones around to place under every tyre. This will give you extra protection against slide-offs and ensure maximum stability when working on the tyre. Now, switch on the parking or hazard lights to warn the car following you about the probable breakdown situationIf you carry the safety cones with you, place them around your vehicle to create a safe working zone. Also, ensure that these cones are equipped with reflectors for nighttime visibilityTake out all the tools at onceThis seems like a redundant instruction but is very important because people make the blunder of opening the trunk when the car is off the ground. This extra jerk puts the vehicle at the risk of sliding offThe tools you need to draw out are an air compressor, air pump, car toolkit, car-jack and seal. If you are new to this process, take out the owners manual and the instruction guide that came along with all the tools. Arrange all the tools around the affected tyre so that you can complete the task quickly and the vehicle doesnt stay off the ground for a long time.Place the car-jacks carefullyThe car-jacks must be placed along the vertical alignment of the car to get a stable lift. Now, roughly locate the vehicles centre axis and place the jack there. Always ensure to carry two jacks with you so that the car doesnt tilt in one direction and risk car-jack breakdown. If you have only one jack with you, ensure that its lifting capacity is per the cars weightNow, refer to the instruction manual to know about these jacks operating process and act accordingly.Locate the punctureOnce the car has been lifted, locate the point of puncture and notice the holes dimensions. If the hole seems wider than 2mm, leave the object as it is, inflate your Tyres Levenshulme and look for the nearest garage. Because, in such situations, if you pull out the object, the hole will get more comprehensive, making the puncture challenging to fixApply the seal and inflate your tyreIf the affected part is not wider than 2mm, move ahead with the repair process. Take out the seal and note its properties. Usually, there are two types of seals: solid and liquid. If you have a solid seal, put it on the hole and use the air compressor to push it in and fix it in its place. Read the instruction manual for the required compressor settings.Similarly, if you have the liquid seal, you have to pour it in through the valve, and it will move through the tube and seal the hole from within. Once you have applied the seal, inflate your tyres, and you are good to go.However, dont rely entirely on this temporary fix and visit a garage as soon as possible to get a proper damage assessment." ]
