I've heard of people filling these pools partly with water, then turning the donut over into the water a little at a time to find a leak. Would have to be less than fully aired up. Might be worth a try.

Frank,
I understand that part is supposed to be filled with air but I was suggesting rigging up an adapter and filling it with water part way, possibly add food coloring as well. Next, tilt the pool around or flip it upside down as suggested and see if you can find the water leaking.

Ya I thought of that too, but then once I find the leak how do you drain all of the water out.Originally Posted by Bleach=Chlorine?

What about hooking an airpump up to it to maintain pressure and then just hold some tissue paper next to it and see where it starts to move.
