Ok, so I bought these http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-107-EK&groupid=962&catid=1529&subcat= and this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-048-OE&groupid=962&catid=1530&subcat= now I can get the tubing over the barb easy enough, but I can barely get 1 turn on the compression?????? Have I ordered the correct size tubing? I have used smaller compressions and tubing before so I'm pretty sure I know what I'm doing.

you shouldn't have an issue. Have they possibly dispatched the 10/13 version by mistake or labelled incorrectly. Can you post a pic?

Its definitely the correct fittings, as I have the 10/13 fittings and my new ones are much bigger.

Did you try holding the tubing and turning the compression? As opposed to holding the block/pump/whatever and turning the compression. I found with my fittings (Monsoon ones) I had to do that, otherwise if I turned the compression, it acted like a spring and just turned back after I let go. What you want is for the tube to stay still and the compression to turn, so holding the tube made sense...

Just noticed your last sentence so you probably already know! Probably something else in that case...
