Still having air leaks

Hello, I’ve bought a pressure gauge pump,

(Professional Penis Pump for ED | PenisPumpWarehouse.com)

Anyhow, I still have air leaks, there’s nothing wrong with the pump (I tried it on my leg and it’s just fine, but when I put it on my penis it can’t hold pressure)..

I trimmed down my pubic, what’s more to do? perhaps I can decrease the size of the cylinder somehow? any ideas (I think it’s a bit too big)?

Do you lube up your penis?

If you are having trouble with that there are two thing I’d check first. One is to make sure that the connector between the pump and the cylinder is on tight, that way pressure doesn’t leak. Also, the most important thing for me when pumping is applying some vasaline or other thick lubericant to the base of the cylinder and to the skin/hair where it will connect. This offers a very good seal in all respects and is relatively easy to wipe off afterwards.

I use shaving cream with a slight bit of water to lube mine up.

Check out the help I was given by Petitfaun and Lampwick in this thread:

Newbie can’t get a perfect seal — is continually pumping the pump ok?

What Petitfaun told me to do works perfectly.

I think my cylinder is too big, is there a way to put something inside it so the opening would be smaller without letting the air leak? something air-proof and comfortable enough?

It is possible but I think you should just get a new cylinder.

Where can i get only the cylinder?

try a google search on penis cylinders. If there are any local traders doing them you can pick them up there.

Pumptoys.com sells some of the best cylinders on the market in my humble opinion .

Their Velseal cylinders are very comfortable and well constructed .

Try going to the hardware store to get a rubber reducer for pvc pipes. If your tube is 2 in. Then get a 2 to 1.5 in. Make sure it comes with a hose clamp. Slip it over the base of your tube and use the clamp to seal it off. Also, round the edges at the base

I fixed it, I just changed the lubricant from baby powder to a lotion, much better and totally air-shut.

You would never get a seal from just using a powder, the riny granules will cause ups and downs in the skin and allow air to move through!
