Well I thought I had a great idea - to use the air valve on my newell for occasional air uses if necessary. Maybe even in an emergency situation as well. I tested it at home, and it worked great.

We were out with some friends and I thought I'd show off how cool this was. Well, I plugged in my hose to the fitting, told my friend "watch this", then I turned the valve. Exactly NOTHING happened. Undecided I took all hoses off the valve. Said "watch this" again. Ahem, still nothing...

my newell was at about 90 LBS. pressure. What gives?

Any thoughts?
