It can be something you came up with yourself or came across elsewhere- doesn't have to be from the manual!

valve stem removal, rainbow sharpies for American flag stickers

ooh any good resources on the valve stem thing?

I'm curious how easy it is

Electric screw driver:

Remove valve stem cap. Insert bit. Press rotate button. Replace cap. Walk away.

Seriously though, you can even get one of these:

Some people promote using a simple green/ brown lentil, and just jamming it in there. I've never done that, but I can promise you simple unscrew the valve stem a bit, and that will do the job, with no real damage done.

oh I didn't realize you could just unscrew the middle part. I was aware of the lentil trick, but with a metal BB instead.

ETA: with the BB, superglue it to the inside of the valve stem cover so, if they don't check, after they fill the tire and replace the stem cap it will just depress the needle again and the tire will deflate.

Yeah the valve stem is replaceable. Screws right out. You don't even need to fully remove it. Just a couple turns and it starts leaking air, much faster and a bit (its still pretty loud) quieter than if you just push it in.

If you are really in a hurry and need a more permanent solution, I would just recommend using these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/316323279030?var=0&toolid=10029&customid=364973558327772330&loc_interest_ms=&loc_physical_ms=71436

Hell yeah. I got kicked out of an "ICE defense" signal chat for bringing up valve stem removal lmao

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

They have little USB rechargeable screw drivers now that can go on your key chain. Just keep the right bit with the driver ๐Ÿ‘
