Thanks guys. Now I have to walk away from the car....as I found out the hardway that one of the line fitting was messed up it had been crossed threaded in the old master cylinder. So I will be taking it to work on monday and run a thread cleaner in it...in the mean time I need to put a new fitting on the line, just not now
