Where is the leak?

You can cut out the leaking spot, install 4AN fittings and join the two ends together.

Cut out the break, get an AN male and female fitting, attach them to the ends of the lines and connect.

Try www.nitrousdirect.com. I've got a few things from them and never had problems.

You have located the leak in the middle of the line? Any idea as to how the line got punctured?

-4 line is really cheap, and -4 fittings are cheap as well. It shouldn't cost 90 bucks if you make your own line. It would be better then adding more fittings into the mix.
