Also just to be helpful another reason why they don't put 100 PSI pumps into a pop-up camper is that holding tank is for boondocking you're wasting a shitload of water the faster you pump it out of the holding tank and the quicker you're going to run out of it if you're up in the mountains on some forest service road like I go to sometimes and have no way to refill it until you get back to civilization. Maybe this is not the case for you because you're mostly hooked up to city water at a campground but if your boondocking and that's all you have for two to four days you're screwed if it's pumping out that fast you're going to run out of water twice as fast with a pump like that then you would a pump rated for that system I really hope all this helps. The faster it pumps out the faster you're running out of water and have to refill your holding tank
What you did wrong was getting a pump that was way overrated for the system of a pop up or any camper for that matter. the reason why the plastic vinyl tubing was only rated for 45 PSI is because the hose clamps and all the fittings are only rated for 45 PSI so it doesn't really matter if you put tubing this rated for 100 PSI your fail point is going to be all the connections because your pump was never supposed to be that strong to begin with. I do not understand for the life of me why you would go by tubing That's rated for a 100 PSI and not look into the ratings for of the fittings. Or just use your sense and see that they're plastic and just looking at them you can tell that prone to begin leaking at some point because everything in a pop-up or any camper is cheap for camper builders to cut corners. I mean it's literally common sense because you have clear tubing that's connected to plastic fittings that not only can crack but they're only connected with a hose clamps surrounding the outside of the tube and a plastic male end on your fixtures. Please take my word of advice and put a smaller pump on your pop-up camper and fix a switch to it because if you leave that in your camper to go on a hike or go swim in the lake on a campground and one of those connections fail because of how much pressure you have them under it's going to feel your entire camper floor up with all the water you have in your freshwater holding tank. There's actually about three or four UA-cam videos talking about it which is why and pop up campers they install a switch. Also when people are hooking to City water connection on a small pop-up camper or a big RV and anything in between there is a thing called a water pressure regulator that is rated at 50 psi for a reason because most camper piping which is just cleared tubing as you see and plastic fixtures are not rated for the amount of pressure that comes out of your City water hookup at campgrounds and state parks. I myself have been hooked up to city water at a park in habersham Georgia that had outrageous water pressure and it blew the rubber tubing completely off of the plastic male connection and kept doing it over and over again the entire camping trip no matter how tight I made the hose clamps. I had to go outside of my camper and push the lever down on the city water connection almost completely shut to slow down the water coming out of there outlet enough to not keep blowing my pipes apart while I was there. Your pump can do the very same. I hope this helps you not have a catastrophe a wet camper floor not only can rot and never tends to dry out because it's just particle board but it can ruin your whole trip.
I made that comment before I watched you break a fixture and then turn around and put a brass fixture and thread it into plastic threads like I said even when you get these small leaks stopped your pump is entirely too much pressure for those pop-up camper lines and especially if you leave from that camper and don't install a switch that you can completely turn off the power to that pump whenever you leave so then when it senses a leak and the pressure drops in the lines it doesn't just empty your whole tank out into the floor you're asking for trouble dude
It was fun to learn alongside you. Thanks for leaving the mistakes in :)

Ok, please stop using a frickin screwdriver for hose clamps! lol those are 8mm hex heads, use a damn socket!
