The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop Why me, Lord? EDITED: NOW, THE REST OF THE STORY

My dad has the Eastwood tool, he used a cheap one on the brake lines on his 40 chev (car) and had some leaks. Then he bought the Eastwood tool. I used it for the brake lines on my 58 2-ton and had no issues at all. He used it to redo the lines on his car.

The instructions with the tool say to use a little bit of never seize on the end of the tubing while you are flaring it so the tool slides on it and does not mar the flare.
