Lay the tube on the tire with the valve stem matched to the label. Now, check the tire and rim in that area. Look at the tire tread fr any punctures.

What is the temp. difference between when you fill the tire and check it the next time?
Great advice, but I found the failure already. It was in the valve.
And, the tire (as stated) has several nicks and cuts.
Thanks though...I'll keep all that in mind.
