Then press the side of the tire down underneath the edge of the wheel, tuck your tire iron in between the lip of wheel and the bead, and then pry the bead over the lip the of the wheel. Reinstall the tire onto the wheel by pressing it down over the the rim until the bottom bead clears the edge of the rim.

Use the needle nose pliers to pull the valve stem free from the wheel. Once the tire is removed from the wheel remove the valve stem. Once the lip is over the edge of the rim, work the tire iron around the edge of the wheel until the tire is removed from the wheel. Insert the tire iron in between the the tire’s lip and the edge of the wheel and pry upwards to pull the lip over the edge of the rim. Grab the tire by its removed lip and pull it upward so that the opposite lip that was at the bottom of the wheel is now touching the top edge of the rim. Once you have pulled the lip of the tire over the edge of the wheel, work the tire iron around the rim until the entire lip of the tire is off the rim. Once the tire’s bead has been broken, insert your tire iron between the edge of the rim and the inside lip of the tire, and then pry upward to pull the lip of the tire over the edge of the wheel.
Step 6: Lift the lip of the tire up from the wheel. Once the bead has been broken, continue around the tire with the sledgehammer until the bead is completely broken all the way round the tire. When the bead breaks loose you may hear a crack or popping sound, and you will see the inside lip of tire visibly separate from the lip of the wheel. Hit the sidewall of the tire using the sledgehammer in the same place until the bead breaks loose. Next, use the sledgehammer to break the tire’s bead free from the wheel. Step 5: Separate the tire’s bead from the wheel. Once the valve stem core is removed the tire should deflate on its own. Remove the cap from the valve stem, and then remove the valve stem core using the valve stem removal tool to release the air from the wheel. Once the vehicle is raised, remove the wheel and set it flat on the ground with the outside of the wheel facing up. Set the parking brake, and then raise the vehicle and secure it on jack stands. Loosen the lug nuts of the wheel from which the valve stem is going to be replaced.
#Valve stem remover cap how to
In this step by step guide we will cover how to remove a tire from a wheel manually, using a tire iron, to replace the valve stem. However, for instances where this is not an option, a tire can be removed and the valve stem changed manually. In most cases the the fastest way to replace a valve stem is to take it to a tire shop and have them remove the tire and replace the valve stem using aid of a tire machine. Depending on the severity of the leak, the tire may leak air slowly, or in more sever cases not hold air at all, warranting replacement of the valve stem. When valve stems begin to leak, the tire will no longer hold air. Over time valve stems may get old, crack, become brittle, or begin to leak, causing larger problems with your tire and your driving experience. They contain a spring loaded valve core that seals itself using the air pressure inside of the tire. Tire valve stems are the valves located in a vehicle’s wheel where the tires are inflated from.
