If you f'd up the thread on the hose the threads weren't aligned correctly.Start the fitting by hand before clamping the hose down it should screw in by hand until the o-ring contacts the inner seat in the pump fitting.

But after a lot of stuffing around! The thread inside the pump was stripped a little and I couldn't get another one any where so I had to buy a new pump. Love having it clean in the bay. Just need to get this crank seal sorted now.
