Default STUPID QUESTION

I have a lil problem.
I just got some valve stems for my new wheels & the valves wont go in.

They go in from the inside of the wheel and there is a tool you need to pull them through which threads onto the stem and it allows you to get a good pull on the stem.

Now are you talking about the whole rubber valve stem or just the little screw in piece?
