You need to make sure the line goes in far enough to have the retainer clip make a click noise signaling the line is fully installed, also if the retainer clip is missing the line will not stay in. You may need a new secondary cylinder. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
