George6512 Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 The barb fittings need to be into the hose, I use to bits of decking wood with the slots in them clamp the hose and lube it up and tap them in, So that the barb is all the way in. hope this helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaarel Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 build something similar as seen on here http://www.observedtrials.net/vb/showthread.php?t=36518. use a bit of oil or something to lube the top of the hose and barbed fitting and tap it in slowly.
