Show Sticking Valve Caps. Valve caps have a way of sticking in place so as to defy all ordinary efforts to dislodge them. When this happens, it is a good plan to cut out a section of the rim with a cold chisel and then drill a series of 3-16 inch holes from this cutout cut-out section of the rim up to the threads. Enlarge this series of drill holes into a slot with the chisel, and then give the rim a smart tap with a steel bar or other convenient piece of stock. This will bend the cap or crack it, so that it can be easily unscrewed. |
