While it may just be a nail...

I've solved a few slow leaks by tightening up the valve stem core. There is a specific tool for this that comes in a green package. It is possibly "Slime" brand.

The tool fits into the valve stem and when you turn it like a screwdriver will tighten the core until you hear a click. The click indicates proper tightness has been met.
