Put some air in the tire and go to a tire store, I'm sure they can plug it without removing the wheel.

 

FWIW,

I had to put the spare on my car, '05 GT, and i used the lug nuts along with the locking one. Of course I put the on good and tight. It was only about 30 miles, probably less back to my house. Ended up getting new tires all around. When they went to remove that wheel the top of the locking was GONE! I later found it in my garage close to where the car was parked, but far enough away that the sucker must have POPPED off somehow maybe due to temp changes or something.

 

ok i found the wheel lock key in my glove compartment and got the tire patched.

thanks for the help guys, a lot of good tips are in this thread.

 

Fix-A-Flat will make the inside of the tire unpatchable.
Been there, changed a few thousand tires, done that.
It turns the inside of the tire to a goo that a patch
wont stick to no matter what you do.

Ford needs to make the glovebox smaller so things
dont go into limbo when placed in it or a dedicated
place for the ever so important OEM wheel lock key.....

 

And you didn't look there to begin with? That's grounds for losing some man-points...

 

Have you had any experience with a "green" product called Slime? Supposedly it cleans up okay, and doesn't damage the TPMS sensor.
