Folks,
Sprang a gusher on the brake line going to the right rear brake on my '92 Grand Am. Happened at the fitting just behind the fuel tank. Odd place to fail, but for some reason the line was extremely rusty at that location.
Now to the issue at hand. I would like to use a compression fitting to mate the replacement tubing to the original tubing near the left wheelwell where it is in excellent condition and relatively easy to access. What is the thinking these days on using compression fittings instead of flaring?
