You’re joking, right? You didn’t actually keep these together with dental floss, did you?

Not a joke. I was with him. If I knew how to post a picture, I could show you how to fix a leaky stem valve with dental floss.

I had Sears install four new tires on a Land Rover Discovery in October of 2006. To date, three of the stems have failed. The fourth didn’t have a chance to fail because that tire was punctured and had to be repaired. I suspected foul play until I did a web search for ‘Sears defective valve stems’ just today. Sears never alerted me as to the problem.
