Please not to neglect the earth - can you blow easily through the hose - long hose with narrow bore creates lots of drag for air. Try short hose with large ID.
Stebel Nautilus question for anyone who has seperated the horn from the compressor ..

I would mount it up front anyway and not separate it. If you look at my signature pic you can make out part of the Steble tilted back and facing forward. I extended the horn cover out 30mm and the scull not only scares cars it stops rain flowing in to it at speed. You can even use the original horn mount.

I see no reason why it works when attached to the compressor, but won't work when separated..
That makes no sense at all.
I did mine, used a piece of cheap clear hose, attached it to the compressor.
wait a minute,
I had to attach something to my compressor a nipple I think,
then the hose to that,
with the other end going to the trumpet.
Did this dealer put a nipple in the compressor or just shove the hose down in the hole and hope for the best.
I put mine in with JB Weld, then stuck the hose on it, used a clamp to make sure all the air went through the hose,
and I got all the horn anyone needs.

As Skip stated you will need a 5/16 barbed hose coupling (mine was brass, and I got it at Home depot) on the horn side. I used 5 minute epoxy to hold mine in.
One thing I noticed is that when you seperate it from the compressor you have to use zip ties to mount it.
I originally put a zip tie around the center of the horn between the diafram and the plastic trumpet part.
When I hit the horn it was weak due to the fact the diafram couldn't vibrate properly.
To solve this problem I drilled 2 holes in the bottom front part of the horn and used a zip tie to hold it down.
Now it works properly. If you would like I can post a pic to explain better.
