I do believe you mean without hehe. And what about your bleeder valve? What do you use for that?

Umm, So you are saying that you tested the 120 psi rated hose to 300 psi and it burst? I always thought that air fittings were rated 1/3 of the burst pressure of the material.
Yeah, it's that important.

Maybe he mean the hose popped out of the fitting

Thanks a lot for your help, especially for the venting part.
