Most tire gauges don't read anything at all under 5PSI. My sole exception in my personal collection is the one that came with my ATV--those tires should have only 3-4PSI, depending on terrain.

The rubber on the outer tire is pretty stiff--since you removed it and it's not supporting tractor weight, it might still seem to be kinda up.

I, still being young and having good hearing, just inflate a leaky tube and rotate it slowly. I can usually hear the air leak. If I can't... I have peach fuzz on my face where I don't shave, and it's remarkably sensitive. Can find most slow leaks that way.

Lastly, I'd recommend taking a 'baby pool', filling it with clear water, inflating the tube and submerging it. The bubbles will easily indicate where the leak is.

That's all I got.
