      From: kludge@panix.com              Tires with slow leaks not caused by punctures or cracking are:              1. Leaking through the valve stem       2. Leaking through the valve core       3. Leaking through a dirty bead       4. Leaking through a puncture or crack that you missed.              I suggest putting a metal cap over the valve and see if that stops it. If       it's leaking through the valve core, that is not a great permanent fix, but       it's a good diagnostic tool and you should keep the metal caps on there anyway       because it's cheap protection against future leaks.       --scott              --       "C'est un Nagra.
