Default Re: Very slow air leak in tire

in 1966 on a trip to San Diego from San Luis Obispo I got 7 flat tires. I kept patching the tube but it kept getting flat. I finally found the nail that was poking through the tire.

The air coming though the valve stem opening indicates a leak in the tube. Check again for a something poking through the tire or a sharp somewhere.
