WranglerStar show you step-by-step how to fix a flat tire in the field with a tire repair kit. It’s good info to know and a tire plug kit a good piece of gear to have in each of your vehicles. He recommends a small bicycle pump at the very least, but a DC pump would be better or even a can of tire inflator would work in a pinch.

I wonder if you can do those steps without taking the tire off?
I would think you could if you had to but I’ve never tried it.
I’ve always wondered how that repair kit works. Thanks to you, now I know. This is a well-done instructional…
I learn something new just about every day on this site. I would have never thought to put this in my bob kit. Looks like it’d be a little difficult to get that gooey stuff into that hole if you were a small person. I guess for me (62yr old gal) I’d have to stand the tire up and sit on it to get better leverage. All in all, most people would be surprised what you could do if your life depended on it.
Very nice step by step instructions. A simple tire plug kit is one of the most important preps you can keep in your vehicles.
