FABO Saves the Day ( again)
2 days ago I spent about 4 hours under the car to hopefully eliminate all brake tube fitting leaks. I lapped all of the SS tube flares, and installed the copper flare seals. Some bores at P valve have the larger nut/ bore size so I used a dab of super glue to hold the flare seal on to the tube flare, worked well, no leaks yesterday and in about 40 minutes of bleeding I had good pedal. I didn't have a helper so I used the bottle of fluid/hose method. Knowing more about SS tubing now, I had the SS Tubes carb dual feed length corrected. Hal at Az. Tube and Hose made the 2 ends the correct length, SS Tubes work was 1/4" short between carb inlets, this is why they never centered or seated. Maybe fuel line in today and then it's test drive time.
