flat, so I figured if he wasn't going to worry about it then I wouldn't
either.
The use helped a lot on the mains but the nose wheel still needed help.
I just recently changed to metal caps, maybe that is the culprit. Leo

Did you have any balance problems after using Fix-a-Flat? Did you go out
and taxi around while it "set up", or what?

I just put the stuff in and taxied up and down the runway a couple of
times and went flying. I honestly don't know if I have balance
problems or not. Everything seems to work ok, no odd noises, no wheel
bearing problems and there are no obvious tire wear problems like you
would have with a car. I suspect that taxi and takeoff distances are
so short that minor balance problems would not show up. I have never
seen anyone balance a cherokee wheel with weights anyway. Leo
