Any one know how to take out ...

Does anyone know how to take OUT a plug in a tire?

I have one that has been in there for what looks like awhile, but it is leaking. I need to take it out and put another one in. Any suggestions?

P.S. Please don't tell me to take the tire off and patch it. Really not an option right now. If that's all that can be done, I will just order new tires.

Thanks

try some of that fix-a-flat stuff that you spray into your wheel. i've only used it once myself, but it seems to hold up pretty well for smaller leaks/holes.

plug

The best way to fix a plug (besides a patch)- is to plug it. Jamb the plug tool into the existing plug and it will fall to the inside of the tire. You may need to double up on the plugs when you put the new one in.

I don't suggest using fix a flat. If you do, make sure youre not around the next time you get your tires changed. It gums up the whole inside of the wheel. Some tire shops will charge extra when they find it in there.
