Clippard Air Tank Leaking

We have tried the Clippard black air tanks. In our best try, using the air tubing we were able to get no more than 20 PSI pressure and then the compressor runs forever. The tubing we used is one of the 4 different colored spools we already had (I wasn't at the KOP unpacking).

We tried to cut the tubing exactly square but nothing we tried seemed to work better than 20 PSI.

Anyone having better luck than we are?

In the meantime we are using a metal air tank apparently from the 2012 rookie KOP. It has only one port but actually works quite nicely using one of the push tube connectors. Same tubing was reused and same cut but perfect containment. At this time I have to presume the black air tanks are not that great.
