I bought one of these but I cannot remember whether it has an end that fits
the stem cap or not? At any rate, it has not been a problem as you can use
a nut drive or socket with extension.

A standard nut driver works fine.

I've been following this thread for awhile so here's my $0.0002 worth. I installed
Michelin slow leak tubes over three years ago and am now on the second set
of tires with the same tubes. I do a visual check each preflight and remove the
front half of the wheel pants once a month or so to check pressure, takes about
15 minutes to do both mains. So far I have never seen the tire pressure drop
by more than one psi per month and it is usually more like one psi in two
or three months. Desser Tire sells the tubes, they ain't cheap but for my in my
opinion well worth the cost.

I cut a hole in my wheel pants and put a spring loaded small door that I
got from ACS. I then went and got a straight pressure gauge from Sears. I
check mine every two weeks because of crappy tubes that leak. I will be
changing them next set of tires.
