I have that same high pressure hose. Before I learned to put the regulator at the CG spigot, I would get water leaks at the screw-on fittings. None of the several different types of hose washers I tried totally stopped the leaks. I even tried using a wrench on the fittings to hold the washers tight. When I moved the regulator to the CG spigot, the water leaks stopped even when the fittings were just finger tight.
Lesson learned: The tested hose can hold the pressure but the screw-on fittings won't.
