Ok for some reason my valve stem is letting air out of my tube on the front.  It was doing to the last tube I had in there and i thought i had a piched tube from riding but once i took the tire off i noticed it was just the valve stem.  I ended up putting in a brand new HD tube anyhow and kept it as a spare.  I went riding the other weekend and hit a few nice size rocks that were mounted in the ground with my front tire and thought i may have pinched that one as well because I was running a slightly lower air pressure for the conditions I was riding.  I added some air after that from my pump and it seemed fine all day, got home and when i unloaded my bike it was flat, so I pulled the tire off again to change out the tube and same thing happened, tube was fine but the valve stem was leaking slowly.  All I can figure out is possibly my foot pump i use is either getting debris in there or something else is going on.  Any way to figure this out?  Isnt there something that can pull the little release piece out in the stem and rplace it or something.  I just cant figure out why two perfectly fine tubes could do this and have the exact same problems.
