Rummy Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Mine are seized too. Even bought some mini-needle nosed mole grips - still no joy. Just spins and loosens the valve from inside the wheel as well as marking the stem Seems I have the Chuck Norris of valve caps.... Off to buy a Dremmel this morning.....Stand by, Chuck..stand by...
