The other post about microbore leaks was orginally made by me.

what happend is i bought a microbore tap and hose to go with my trolley and obv because i was turning the pump off by the tap on the pole and not the varistream its self pressure was in the lines causing the female hozelock to leak and the conenctor that goes into it then 2 microbore hose.

which is all sorted with some PTFE altho the hozelock conector leaks a tiny bit think its just best to get the brass ones!! seems to sorted it now.


only other problem i have now is everytime i get the hose out it starts to ravel up and kink and takes about 10mins to sort out after cleaning every job... is it best to just get a hose reel?? because pictures i have seen on here of people using the hose seems to stay nice and stright!

GEKA fittings are good although pricey. Find them on gardiners website.
