I found a leak by inflating it and spraying a heavy liguid soap and water mix and watching for bubbles and movement. Sad thing is I didn't find all the leaks which brought me here. I would also like some 'miracle fluid' :) to fill it with to stop the leaks. Still looking. -Dave
First, find the leak. Using a vinyl patch kit, cut a patch that is an inch bigger than the hole. Make sure the spot is dry. Apply the glue around the hole and place the patch over it. Seal the patch with more glue. Allow the glue to dry for several hours.
To fix air ring leaks in an above ground pool, a person can use what is called a marine patch. Marine patches can be purchased at most hardware stores. A good tip to remember is that tiny air leaks can be found by spraying a mixture of dish soap and water on the pool ring. Air leaking will cause bubbles to form.
Patches can be used to stop leaks in inflatable pool ring. Use a patch that is especially for marine use. If the pool ring is leaking around the air nozzle, it can be remedied by putting a little Vaseline on the stopper before closing it.
This info would be best attained by inquiring directly with the manufacturer of the pool as this would depend on such things as the n=material the pool is made from.
Fill a sprayer bottle with dishsoap and make a soapy solution, spray it on the area that you think is leaking. It will bubble wherever air is escaping

Walgreens sells a product for vinyl repair that works very well when used as directed. it is called POWER POXY. The valve needs to be replaced. Do not attempt to repair the valve. The patch will not last and could be dangerous people if it were to separate into pieces. If the valve were to break while in operation or while the pump was running the resulting break could drain the pool.

Bicycles with inflatable tires usually have one non-return valve for each tube/tire. Bicycles with air-sprung suspension will have one for each shock.
