Dip the hose end (about 2" of it) in boiling water for about 1 minute before trying to put it on. Don't put any lubrication on it. Grab the cool part of the hose & push it straight down until the hose slips over the fitting. Shove it on as far as you can & let it cool. It won't come off & will form fit to the pump fitting as it cools.

yeah. I had to use every trick in the book to get the supplied tubing on. I lubed it up with some vaseline while running the hose under the hottest water i could run and then i pushed with all my might until finally i got it on. But, like i said, it stretched the hose, so it comes off kinda easy. Especially now that it's all lubed up. I'm thinking of ways to make a better seal. Something safer but not permanent. Any ideas?
I'm already in love with this thing. I've never got my PIII 450 to run at over 500. It's incredibly addictive. I'm grilling it in at 517 right now.
