If you want to stay tubeless:
Force the tire beads toward the wheel rims by twisting a rope or
belt around the centerline of the tire.

Remove the Schraeder valve from the fill point to let more air in
faster.

Once you have the tire seated, replace Schraeder and give it a
dose of SLIME or equal.

If you don't care about tubeless, get in innertube, pull out the
valve core, reassemble and inflate.

My apologies if this is off topic. I could not find a spot to
put it.


My problem is as follows. Some time back, I had purchased a
Big Red
Wagon from Northern tools. It has 4 pneumatic tires and good
load
capacity. Over the years, It has served me well.

The problem is that one of the pneumatic tires has gone flat,
but
without a puncture. This has happened once over the winter
time, and
after many attempts at trying to reinflate the tire, I gave
up. I
bought a brand new one for $25 USD, but it strikes me that
there must
be some way to reinflate the tire. It must have been done when
manufactured!!

As it is, I have a tubeless tire with a a broad gap across the
tire to
the rim -- I cannot detemine a method to manipulate it so I can
get the
air to stay in and for it to seal up against the hub. Anyone
have an
idea? I would like to avoid buying a new tire again.
