Can't get the plastic insert to stay in place, but the paper one did as I made it wider. Then it would not maintain its shape, and when all was done, the paper and the tube were pinched. I need professional help, and I don't mean with the tire.

Would love to see some pictures and how you managed to do it.. My next question is why wouldn't it work?? I've used the method for years with no issues and no holes. Simple to install and slightly inflate the tube. Inquiring minds need to know what you did or didn't do..
