Can I just use any? The ones I pulled off are knackered :)

This bit probably isn’t meant to come off...

Depends what you're doing with it. Never had an issue with Pagid on a daily driver so +1 for them.

Double check all the jubilee clips etc. Could just be a case of it being literal froth from the system sucking in air though a loose connection and not a major fault.

Check your dipstick for water droplets.

What colour is the froth / foam?

Haha aye thats what I've been doing for the past few years, figured its time for a more permanent solution though as this was the first fail its ever had.

Lovely. I'm thinking just doing what we do with hydraulic lines on ship so just standard male ferules and one of these in the middle with loctite 542. https://www.demon-tweeks.com/uk/automec-female-connector-247434/

So I have a question re UK MOTs and compression fittings on break pipes. I jacked up the car even further to get started on replacing all the pipes after the parts arrived... and there's no corrosion other than the 0.5-1cm around the end ferules and the 4cm on the drivers side rear pipe...

Its so clean...

Preaching to the choir my man. When I first got mine I picked up some caliper bolts from a dealer. £5 each :ROFLMAO:

Following.

Aye always better to be safe than sorry with a bit of ptfe, maybe just bad luck with the double flare though?

You just spent £26 on a spring the size of my thumb?!?

I remember this ? within a week of getting the car this happened and it took me ages to figure out where the metal noise was coming from.

https://www.automec.co.uk/collections/brake-pipe-coils/products/coil-copper-nickel-3-16-x-25ft Thats the supplier but I got it from DemonTweeks as I had ~£80ish credit.

I should probably ask since you've done this before, do I need anything other than standard male ferules?

Had a look this morning and they are definitely knackered. about 40mm from flexi joint is heavily pitted. Ordered 50ft (~15 meters) of copper nickle pipe plus some male fittings and I have everything else I hope. I still have some goodridge flexis lying about somewhere as my brother totalled...

Aye I'm going to jack it up day after tomorrow and look for myself. They gave me some BS about having to work around the tank as to why it would take so long but I've had the tank off before and no way it took more than half an hour to empty and remove. Even if its just one or two that're...

9 hours labour apparently. Maybe if I do it myself on my arse and taking a fag break 2/3 times an hour :ROFLMAO:
