looks like a Viair air hose from the compressor...

the bottom has a check valve that only allows air going on way... so you cant easily get air pushing it with your mouth.

unless you know how to blow hard.. (drums) jk.

my question is.. what the heck are you doing to your air setup?? either youre having many many problems or you originally had 1 problem but in the course of finding out the solution more crap hit the fan.

Can I use a regular hose for that?

From tank to the electric valve?
