[DML] Re: Fix a flat



Stephen,
Wow, that's quite an endorsement against Fix-A-Flat! I've had
nothing but success with that particular product. A few years back, I
was driving my 85 Honda Accord in West Virginia (I live in Ohio) and hit
some debris in the road. The tire went flat almost immediately. Just
my luck, I had flattened the spare a few months back, and had forgotten
to get it fixed! (d'oh) Luckily there was a gas station nearby, so I
pulled in and asked if I could get the tire repaired. They didn't have
anything except Fix-A-Flat that would help, so I gave it a shot. I
drove all the way back to Cincinnati from Charleston, WV, (several
hundred miles) on that Fix-A-Flat's repair job. I would have gotten it
repaired at the next convenient shop, but every time I stopped to check,
the tire was still full. In fact I was borrowing that car at the time,
as it still belonged to my Dad, and when I gave it back to him I forgot
to tell him about the mishap. He drove around on the repaired tire for
about 3 weeks, before I finally remembered to fill him in. Even when he
went in to get it replaced, it was still holding air! For that reason
alone, I'll always carry a can of that stuff in my cars' emergency
kits. Even with the risk of damage taken into consideration, when your
in the middle of nowhere with a flat, and especially when in a DeLorean,
you can't beat Fix-A-Flat in my opinion. Surely if you can avoid using
it you probably should, but if there are no other options, it's nice to
have around!
