I bought a new Autometer mechanical boost gauge and it came with everything to install but the way that the boost hose goes into the boost gauge seems like the boost gauge could just slide back out and cause a boost leak. I installed it accordingly to the instructions but I noticed that I could just pull out the boost hose from behind the boost gauge and then there would be a leak. How do I make sure that the boost hose won't slide out when installing it and driving?
Here is the picture of the boost tube/wire with the three brass pieces.

Even after tightening the brass pieces together, I can still pull out the tube out of the boost gauge. When I was installing the boost gauge into my pod, the see through boost tube slid back out. Am I installing it wrong?
