One of my presta valves sticks. Even though I push it
before connecting the pump chuck, it requires
over-pressure of approximately 50 psi to overcome the
sticky seat and inflate the tire. It does not get better.
I have considered various chemicals (water, detergent,
penetrating lubricant, light mineral oil) to fix it, but
prefer a tried-and-true solution. Anyone? or will I have
to throw away the tube when it gets too sticky to inflate?
