    No leaks found. Set all tires to 33 PSI. Let’s see what it looks like tomorrow.

    Couple years ago I drove to our lake house and all tires were good. A few hours later I noticed one tire was noticeably deflated. Enough that I would have noticed it while driving the 45 min to the lake. Could not find a puncture. Aired back up and never had issue with it again. Remains mystery.

    Happened to me a few months ago.
    Pulled my hair out trying to find a screw or nail.

    Corroded valve stem at the rim. :goingcrazy:

    I checked the valve stem (tire pressure sensor), the valve core, both beads, both sidewalls and the thread. No leaks found. It was low when I got to the truck after work. Light came on during the ride home.
    It will be flat tomorrow.
    I'll have to put it in the dunk tank tomorrow during lunch.

    I had tree guys here Monday removing my last trees. clump of 4 that are dropping larger & larger limbs, bark is cracking & starting to come off. Bye-bye. Had a 5th tree that looked fine but I was WTH take it too. It had some weird curves to the trunk so just take & I'm done with tree guys. Don't you know that WTH tree was about 75%-80% rotted out inside. Lucky call. The other 4 trees - the trunks were solid & beautiful inside, but the limbs were dead & kinda dry - but had lots of leaves? When the limbs hit the ground they just shattered like kindling. Never seen anything like it, but they're all gone & no longer a concern. Nothing taller than a Rose of Sharon for me going forward. Well except for the berm of mulch I now have that's taller than the garage. Tall berms make good neighbors. :-D
