Tired of tires going flat?

Tired of tires going flat?
I don't know if this trick has ever been put on this forum in the past, but here is an alternative to using Slime in tires leaking air. Out of 4 tires, 3 of mine were bleeding air; one was so bad that it would sit on the rim within 24 hours. I had purchased a can of Slime but was reluctant to use it because I had read here it would make a mess inside the tires.
I read on a French hunting site about a guy putting coolant fluid in the tires to stop the air leakage. The recipe called for approx a cup of coolant by tire and to give the ATV a ride to disperse it inside the tires. Some people tried it and claimed it worked.
I gave it a try and it has been a week and no more leak. Thank you ATV gods! Not evident to hook the compressor in the morning at -20 celsius!

I have read that somewhere before.
Chadley, you have to drill a hole in the tire and pour it in.
Just givin' ya a hard time. You pull the valve core and use something like a large syringe to get the coolant in the tire. Don't know how it works, but have heard it will help seal a bead leak as well.
