Your compression tester already had the plug hole adapter. Your tester hose end just wont fit your air compressor line,right?Actually,you can't use your existing hose at all-the check valve in it wont allow for air to enter from that direction.NevermindUnless it has a removeable Shcrader valve.

I imagine the plug adapter in your kit uses 14mm thread(on the female side). Super common in autos. I'd try Advance,Autozone or O'riellys and see if they have a hose. Chances are a standard auto hose will be 14mm ( will thread into your adapter) and will fit a standard 1/4 air compressor quick connect fitting.


I may have enough spare parts in the barn.I'm going to go check right now....Dude,why you gotta be so far away? It complicates things
