Well, i think something must have gone leaky. Check if the valve-core is tightened correctly or maybe replace it. A tool for tyre air valves should fit.

Around the outside of the valve or from the inside part? If it's the latter fit a metal valve stem cover and call it a day. If it's coming from the outside, try to tighten down the valve body or if that doesn't help take it out and wrap it with a bit of teflon tape before re-install.

You can get a new valve from a tyre shop and if you ask the mechanic nicely, you'll probably get a used one for free... Cheers, Greg
