The high side fitting on this truck had a rubber? ball rather than a schrader valve. When I connected to it, the ball was punctured and would not seal. Do these trucks take a special fitting to connect to them? I'm having to replace the line at my expense. The replacement also has the same type of fitting.

That port is used on many cars and trucks. I replace every one I work on before I connect the hose. The old ones leak......Always
