Tubeless tyre puncture repair kit. It works !!
#1
Used one of these recently and found it to be brilliant !
Under $20 from Auto Barn, I now carry it in my spares kit in the kombi and highly recommend it.

   

You get a Reamer to clear and broaden the hole to suit the "plug", an application tool, some rubber adhesive,five soft rubber compound rubber cords and a small trimming knife.
Process is really simple....remove the offending Tek screw, ream the hole a few times, place the cord in the applicator and apply the rubber adhesive all over the cord.. ( this acts as a lubricant to aid the insertion into the hole...) The adhesive appears to cause the cord to expand little, (could be wrong on this) and you then firmly push the cord into the hole until there's about a quarter of the cord sticking above the tread.....then, very quickly remove the applicator upwards which disengages the plug and it's all done !!
Re-inflate the tyre, check for any leak with soapy water and you're back on the road....
A "must have" for anyone travelling.....
Cheers,
Mark
