The 90deg stem is optional, the straight will work fine (I don't think Michelin even sells the 90 any longer).Rv-10 AOG in Friday Harbor,WA with a flat main. Anyone in the Seattle area have a spare main tube with a90 bend valve?
Thank you!

They aren’t. The 10 uses a 15x6:00Might help to mention the tire size. I don't think your mains are the same size as the 6 / 7 / 8 / 9
I’d take anything at this point. I have one in my hangar that will eventually make its way here. But if someone in the Seattle area has one, it would be much quicker. And I’d gladly pay for any gas and replace the tube ASAPThe 90deg stem is optional, the straight will work fine (I don't think Michelin even sells the 90 any longer).
Thank you Walt! I’ll order some Michelins when I get home. I typically run 40-45 psi.For next time.. try keeping 50-55 psi with Michelin tubes and you'll probably never have another flat.
Let them get under 30psi and guaranteed you will have more.
You could probably use a more common 6:00x6 to get going.
Good to know!!Tubes rot out pretty quickly when folded. So, you’re faced with carrying a slightly inflated spare, or changing out an expensive spare pretty often.
Other experiences may differ….. but my stored tube was no good after a couple years.
