Well, first prize goes to Michael Heron for figuring out that I hadn't found the 
air hose to pressurize the reservoir (I was too busy trying to figure out how I 
was going to get air throught the cap -- it really does look like it has a 
valve-type-of-deal on it).  Second prize goes to Joel Walker.

You see my first bus didn't even HAVE a reservoir and when I bought Lief a few 
months ago his was full and pressurized (and Mother Nature was doing such a good 
job that I didn't even need it) so this was my first oppurtunity to figure out how 
to pressurize it.

So the next time anyone sees a question from me that has "stupid" in the header, 
make sure you don't say to yourself "there's no way he doesn't know that .... so 
I'll skip to the next step in the diagnostic process..."

Thanx to all who replied.
