Flat tire after jacking car up.

[cdub0619]

I recently took off the left front wheel and tire to look into a slow leak. New tires, no nails, took to Les Schwab, bad valve stem. The car has been balancing on the other three tires for a good hour. I put the fixed tire back on and bring the car down. The wheels have slight inward camber which fixes itself once you start drive, but I left the car park. The next morning the right front tire is flat. Why would this happen? Thanks for your time.

because that valve is bad too?  did you replace all the valves when you put new tires on?

 

had nothing to do with jacking it up.

I bought the car 8 months ago, owner gave me receipt of new tires which also shows new stems were installed. He did mention there was a slow leak in one tire that I fixed. Never had a problem with the other tires. I guess I'll take it in and find out.

Sometimes an old rim can get a little crusty on the inside where the bead of the tire seals

Sometimes a little soapy water will show you where the leak is.

Thank you, that sounds like what might have happened.
