I'm getting a little concerned about your lack of detail.

Did your paper work say "fetzer" or "ferntzer"? You could be screwed!

So you're a mom and pop shop that hangs an "ASE Certified" sign in front of your door because you bought it off of Craigslist while you were in town?

Sounds like half the shops in Merriam and Olathe to me.

A Certified Master Tech would never tell me that 1/16th of an inch on a brake line of all things "doesn't matter".ROFL

Answer my question smarty pants.

What happens when you cut a brake line on a vehicle 1/16th of an inch short of its length when it rolled off the showroom floor?

Nothing. I don't know how you make brake lines but it would be literally impossible to bend the line and make it that close by hand.

I see you haven't done it much or you would know

I should've chosen something else like battery installation.

But 1/16" is making a big difference on a line that could be 8 feet long...

And no brake lines are different lengths.


ok guy... What about thepickups that the passenger side line runs into the drivers side line in the drivers wheel well then runs over?

Wouldn't that be pretty unbalanced?

Ok all you smarty pants. The length of the stupid line will not matter. Period. As long as it has fluid in the line it could be 5 miles long it will still move the same amount of fluid. Hydraulics 101 boys.

but like the last post said. Diameter is the one that has to be the same/

A little.

I Love when these backwoods shadetree mechanics that spent zero time actually testing, at school, and being paid by your employer for training, tell me that something "Doesn't matter", all because they did work on a farm truck that sees 500 miles of road and 1500 miles of fields annualy, and didn't have an issue.

Meanwhile I'm over here on fleet vehicles hitting 20-30k a year on the road where there are other vehicles.

I paid my dues, got my certs, went through training, and actually have the mental capacity to understand 'why" and "where" which is why I am a Specialist, and he tells me I'm wrong.

Its my job to be right dude.
