Hi, i've got a hot tub that has a rather odd issue, whoever installed it originally connected the 6mm high-pressure tubing directly onto the air bleed valve - instead of the 1 1/2inch female around it, effectively making it impossible to open completely without breaking the 6mm tubing.

I don't think 6mm tubing is very commonly used for hot tubs, and I'm no plumber - I certainly can't find any 1 1/2 inch female to 6mm threaded tubing port adapter. How exactly do I connect the 6mm to the air valve properly?

Good side, in working order.

Bad side, directly connected to the bleed valve that turns, torquing the wire.
