Tire Leaking from Valve Stem - can I fix myself?
So just noticed one of my tire was completely flat, I took the tire out and using spare right now,
Thinking gosh not another nail in my tire, I Inspected the flat tire but find no nail or puncture,
however after I filled air to it I can hear and feel the air leaking almost immediately at the valve stem.
I searched around a bit and it appears CT sells these valve stem tool for tightening or loosening the core, and valve core for replacing the thing.
I was wondering changing the valve core would be something that I can do myself and is safe to do so?
(vs plugging tire when there is a puncture which I have heard is not recommended, should have a professional to patch it)
and I assume it would be universal core size for any tire?
