The fittings are a little fussy. When you take the plastic air line out of them sometimes you will see a little deformation at the end. I cut that off (be carefull if you crush the line with pliers the line will not seal properly). When you insert the line in the fitting the plastic push in piece should pop back up (might even have to pull up on it a little). Make sure you push the line all the way in, when you are sure it is in pull on it a little and you will feel when it is properly seated. After doing this to all my fittings I lose very little air!
