Is it your fitting or the actual macro line?
:confused:

This is why I hated Macroline, first off make sure its not on any sort of large bend. If it is, that won't work as the line will start bending from the fitting thus there will be a leak. Other than that, just play around with pushing in the line. My advise is to get some nice SS line with quick disconnects.

Make sure that the end of the macroline is cut off evenly....you do not want it to be jagged.

take the top of the part of the adapter where the macroline goes in.look inside.There is a rubber o-ring inside.Sometimes the edges of the maroline are sharp and cut a piece of the o-ring.Replace it with a power tube o-ring.last longer than the regular o-ring.works great.

macro is very easy to work with as long as you make clean straight cuts with it.

Another way to ensure a clean cut is heat macro with a hair dryer then cut with a razor knife. Dont use a lighter as this will haet the hose to quickly, and usually melt it.
