Art, I'm a bit of a slow study.

You say, air is coming from your compressor when the hose is attached.... where is the air coming from, out the end of the hose?

What is on the end of the hose at the compressor end and the free end?

How do you connect your air hose to your valve body, and what type of valve is this?

Your compressor should have a discharge coupler, which is likely CHECKED. (see site map for more details) When you plug a CONNECTOR into that coupler, air flows. At the other end of the hose is another checked COUPLER, and air won't flow out that end of the hose until something is inserted into the coupler to enable the air to flow.

Give me some more details as a post here.

Cheers,
