And please don't say "drop the engine" or "remove the heat exchangers".......
I am talking about the body side that is quite difficult to get to. Fiid. |

I just did this last week. I had a leaky line and was upgrading to SS braided. I also could not get the 17mm on the rubber line in a manner that let me actually MOVE the damn thing.
I also did what was just suggested. If you are pitching the rubber lines, just cut them off below the fitting and stick a deep socket over the end. You should be able to get an 11mm flare wrench on the top fitting. and hold while spinning the socket. Good luck! |
