Where is there pressure? Which hose? If you mean that the air doesn't seem to 
get thru the reservoir cap then do you realize that there is a shutoff valve 
there that turns this off when you unscrew it? You also won't get any pressure 
into the reservoir unless the spare is above something like 35-40 psi (varies 
depending on body style/color of cap.)
