Leaky Weld Wheel

[sen2two]

So I got a flat on my weld skinny. But the tire is fine. It's leaking from the rubber base that holds the Schrader valve.

I never had to replace one of these before. Sooooo....... any help here?

Are you saying the bottom of the valve stem is leaking? Pull the old one out and it seems like soapy water will get the new one in with some careful force.

Ok, but I am wondering if it is a Weld specific part or can any valve stem be used?

If you are not sure have a pro do it. It is not hard, but the right tools make all the difference, and a little training can save your life if the tire has to be dismounted.
