Hey All
I know recently there was some talk about Macro lines and such..
Recently my braided hose broke so I got a wicked deal on a Macroline kit and replaced the bottom line of my system. New fittings and a new hose..
The day I hooked it up it took 10 minutes (including removale of the old hose and connections) and got it up and running.. WAS SWEET!! Played for about 4 hours with out a problem.. Used CO2 on it with out any issues..
This past weekend I went out to a field to play and as soon as I hooked up the CO2 to the remote I got a MAJOR leak from one of the fittings.. Not from the threads, but where the hose goes into the fitting (you know the locking ring), after the lock ring came out a bit it was leaking like crazy there..
Any idea's as to WHY it might of done this? I tried 3 different peices of hose (as I said I got a wicked deal on the set, and had TONS of hose left) and so it wasnt the hose..
I am wondering if the fitting is pooched..
Any help would be great :)
