One of the dumbest things I've ever done
First off, no pics, sorry.
I feel like a ------- retard right now. Anywho. So i picked up this ching chong 110cc 4-wheeler off of craigslist for $200. Knowing that I could get it running and make a few bucks off of it. Anywho. I've never worked on an ATV before and one of the tires was flat and I couldnt pump it up b/c it wouldnt seat on the rim properly. Tried all kinds of ---- then I remembered watching this show where they sprayed some flammable ---- into the tire, then lit it and voila. i.e. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xwfDEtk-R8 Me being a dumbass, I got it mixed up in my head and thought it was lighter fluid. So I found a can of butane in the garage and went to town. Didnt spray much in there but I grabbed a lighter and wife was like 'noo dont do it' and I was like 'lol silly woman afraid of a little explosion'. ---- shot out like a goddamn fireball from hell. Burnt off half my arm hair. Burnt the ever living piss outta my thumbs. Had to keep ice on 'em for 5hrs straight or the pain was unbearable. Im actually a lot better today, surprisingly and can type and all that. Anywho, got the ATV running. Might try to go ride some trails this weekend then put it back on craigslist for some quick cash/ http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/5968/atvcb4.jpg |

Re: One of the dumbest things I've ever done
i always just get a thin ratchet strap and wrap it around the center line of the tire and squeeze it down real tight. then pick up the tire and slam it on the ground. if its lubed up enough it pops right on the bead. but thats a motorcycle tire too, never done it on a car tire except for my friends racecar but he runs bead locks so its easy.

I have done that ---- hundreds of times on the trail out wheeling. You always light it with a stick. You find a big stick, wad up some tp around it make a little torch, and then reach way in from out of the way, and BAM tire is on the bead. Only negro's stick there hand in there with a lighter or match's... :S

Re: One of the dumbest things I've ever done
Did anybody else notice the giant VW poster in the background of the video demonstrating the O0 way of stretching tires onto wheels they weren't designed for? Hardly surprising but I found it somewhat humorous.
