bums
sure enough, pipe off.. fill with water and blow.. out it comes from a tiny pinhole at the rear of the flange. just made another pipe from a 406 rack.. but the unions were the short variety..
Handyman where are you with that spare rack i gave you lol?

Re: Xantia hydraulic leak
thanks for letting me know Jim..
chaps, is there any other way I can repair this pipe? I don't have brazing gear.. it's only a pinhole.. guessing solder wont last long? or is the pipe something a factors could re-peen or remake?

Re: Xantia hydraulic leak
No worries John and sorry I can't help today, however if you can wait a day or two then I can get it off to you. It's just today's events totally preclude it...jgra1 wrote:thanks for letting me know Jim..

Braze would do a temporary job a treat but so might a bit of plumber's solder. It might not last for long but might just get you over this hump whilst you await a proper replacement...
Pirtek should be able to knock one up in no time and given that it's a pipe with standard flares on it so should any decent garage with the kit to replace brake lines be able to fabricate one...
