I replaced the mastercylinder a few months back. A couple of days ago I noticed some brake fluid on the ground under the car. I found it leaking out of where the brake line screws into the master cylinder. I re-tightened the fitting but it is not sealing up completely. I'm afraid to tighten it any more for fear of breaking the fitting or damaging the seating surface. Any suggestions? Will an o-ring stand up to brake fluid? How about some Teflon tape? If not and I find out that the brake line fitting is damage and I need another brake line how do I go about getting one that is bent into the right shape? Can a muffler/brake shop bend one for me?
As always thanks in advance for any advice Steve
