Yesterday, while tractorizing I started to hear an intermittent "squeak" while discing around a gas well. I was not sure if it was a bird or the well. A little while later, I got my answer. A flat tire. Must have been some of the ballast leaking out of the tire. That is my third flat in 4 years. Anyone else been that lucky?

And does anyone have a preventative?

You can put a product called "slime" in your tire, that works well for small leaks. But a squeak intermittently would probably be more like a bearing in your disk, or a wheel bearing, not air leaking out of a tire. Good luck
