If you come to the conclusion that it is the valve itself and not the valve to bladder seal then you can easily replace it with a new one by just pulling the o ring out from around its groove and getting a new valve

Pure silicone grease is safe ... no petroleum products.
You can buy this from a dive shop. ...but it attracts sand and will only make the problem worse over time... Teflon tape would work but annoying to do every time. Why a threaded plug anyway? That seems like a really silly design for a sandy beach!

works well for me if you just carefull to keep sand out.
actually I 've found the salt that dries out on the threads to be worse since sand you can clean easy but not always dried salt

teflon tape fixed the leak and yesterday while getting my lines out the le bladder blew up at the valve? Is the baladder fixable? I have 200 hundred invested in the contra and wanted a newer bow or sle, is it worth replacing. any suggestion on a new used kite(been watching on ebay used warhoos and crossbows). I am a beginer and weigh 190lbs. and live in bonita springs.
