I have read as part of directions to install sealant.

?? How do you know when you have the correct amount of sealant in a tire?

Mine came with a pump that measures the fluid. I guess you are talking about the AmerSeal that Lamonster sells.

read instructions, Spyder dosage has been figured by Lamonster.

'Lamenter' has everything figured out, but what's the "read instructions" stuff about?

That's like telling someone to 'SEARCH or watch the videos......

Re civet the bottle of sealant but there is no instructions of plastic tube. What to do?

My Bottle of Amerseal from Lamonster had graduated markings on the bottle. A Rear tire took the largest serving so I did it first (Wheel and tire off the Spyder laying flat on the ground during a tire change). Then I dismounted the fronts with Spyder on Jackstands and split the remaining into both fronts. I wish I'd have taken pictures but I thought it was too straight forward a process.

From Lamonster web site:

We found that 10oz was too much for the Spyder tire and we now recommend 6 to 7oz in the front and 10 to 12oz in the rear. This will give you the optimum ride performance for your Spyder

WARNING when installing AmerSeal

I learned the hard way.

Nowhere in the directions does it mention point #3 below

1. Remove valve stem core
2. Install appropriate amount of AmerSeal
3. BEFORE putting valve stem core back in, hook up your air supply to the valve stem to blow out any product from the valve stem!!!!
4. Reinstall valve stem core and pump tire to desired air pressure.

Anyway, the story is that I did the back tire first. I put in the desired amount of AmerSeal. I ended up with some on the rim, tire and floor. Before proceeding, I cleaned up the mess.
Then I installed the valve stem core and tried to add air to the tire. I was using an electric compressor to install the air. The gauge on the compressor went to 220 PSI right away and the tire wasn't taking air.
It appears the the AmerSeal plugged the hole on the inside of the valve stem.
Long story short, I removed the valve stem core and cleaned everything up the best I could and then installed a NEW core.
The tire will take air but it took about 5 minutes to get the tire up the the proper air pressure.

The front tires were a snap because I made sure to do step 3 above right away.
