Buy a jar or large tube of contact cement and bulk patches direct from china on ebay or alibaba and you'll be set after you pair it up with either a dull saw blade, file,or sandpaper/ skateboard grip tape trimmings to roughen the spot.

Easiest way to find a pin hole leak is to fill a tube up to 10/15 PSI and put it in a partially filled sink or basin and look for the bubbles, marking it with a pen so you dont lose it.
