My flojet pump air hose had a leak. Is there a better way to attach the air line to the flojet barb? Can you purchase something other then a barb? This just seems to be a consistent problem.

Since you’re connecting it with 3/8″ OD tubing, get some 3/8″ ID hose, cut a half-inch or so and slide that over the tubing on the barb before you clamp it. It spreads the pressure od the hose clamp more evenly. You can also use 1/2″ OD tubing as a compression fitting by sliding it over the the 3/8″ tubing and barb, and if it’s tight to slip over it’ll act as a clamp. If this doesn’t make sense I’ll send some photos.
