The title says it all. One of my rear flex lines is leaking, and I need to replace it. I looked at it from underneath the car, and it looks like the top of the line will be a bear to unscrew from the rigid line, and also to remove the clip that holds it, the space is very tight.
Does anyone have any tricks to making the job easier? Thanks. |

There are people who have waited until the engine was out so they had better access. Some have also talked about working through some holes in the engine shelf or the engine tin, I think? (Sorry, I don't remember.)
