brake line fitting

[MOhillbilly]

Busted the line at the fitting on the rear passenger side today. I can't get the fitting off, it seems really soft on both ends. Box wrench and socket wanted to round the edges with the slightest amount of torque. Special tool of tricks?

Orielly didn't know the diameter of.the line either. My chiltons didn't have specs that I seen. I assumed its 3/16.

I'm no mechanic but, I'd say that if line a is 4' and line b is 5', as long as both lines are filled with fluid, once you apply the pedal, the pressure should be the same at the end of both lines. But what do I know...

You would be correct.

However, as I've explained and reiterated to the point of beating a dead horse here, that does not apply in a system that does not have a constant, continuous pressure.

Do you know what system in your car follows that lack of constant continuous pressure? You guessed it, your braking system!

Again thanks. This guy doesn't get it.

there is constantly fluid taking up the space in the lines. once pressure is applied it hits both ends simultaneously

I'm seriously lost otherwise.

Well I work in the real world. I'm not talking about a proportioning valve. IF YOU worked in the real world you would know exactly what vehicles I'm talking about. But you most obviously don't. There were only millions made.

I do work in the real world, and I've got no idea what you are referring to, let alone being able to discern the make or model of the vehicle from your gibberish.

You are stupid. You are not a certified master tech, you are a liar.

You cannot be as idiotic as you are, and pass the certified master tech program, I know this, as I have gone through many ASE programs.

You can't even tell me which tests you passed and what your "route" was through the program, just that you are "ASE MASTER TECH CERTIFIED".

Yet you challenge my knowledge on the matter.

Let me ask you a question smarty pants, why do we have bleeders on brake calipers if it is always 100% continuously pressurized?

air bubbles bitches!

BOOM!!!!

And how do we get air bubbles?
