Ok, check this out, I looked all over, and everybody says you gotta break a bead loose, or chew a stem up with screw drivers hillbilly style. I did it in less than 5 minutes, thought it up myself, southern fried style. step one, stem hole on rim @ 6clock (I tore my old one off, and let the tiny base peace fall in). Step 2 Tie a string around new stem. Step 3 take a mid sized plastic funnel, slick up the inside with dish soap, and place it up to the hole. Step 4 park your but on the ground, take right, and left foot place offset both sides of funnel, and hold pressure. (your just keeping the funnel up tight to the hole). Step 5 shove stem in the funnel as far as you comfortably can. Step 6 take a wooden dowel, or straight anything that fits in the hole. Step 7, about 3, or 4 taps with a hammer it will jump in the rim. Step 8 tug string to bring back to the hole,(my first shot was perfect, but if it over shoots, got the string), pull with a pair of pliers until it clicks into place. How easy was that? Tune in next week, and we will see what else southern fried thinking can make easy for those who like to over complicate things.

How do you change valve seals on a Hyundai elantra 2006?
Valve stem seals? Either you change the valve stem, or you change the valve core. Depends on where your air is leaking from. If it's the valve core, you simply take a valve core removal tool or pocket screwdriver with a valve core removal end (either one can be had cheaply at an auto parts store), uncscrew the old valve core out, insert the new valve core, and tighten it in. If you're replacing the entire valve stem, best to let a tire shop do this, as your tire will have to be dismounted, remounted, and balanced again.
