Put the real cable in the one side and block the other port or use it for 
water.  Hum…  water going backwards through the compressor isn’t a great idea.  
And pushing air back the water supply isn’t great.   OK, fill it with water and 
block the other port.   Add air and wait.  Once you have half decent airflow 
change to water.
