The O ring looks fine, thats what i was thinking about the press in the line that i should bleed out from the other port when i go to put it back on. Ill try today and hopefully ill get it in there. Jay

I used a pair of channel lock pliers to squeeze it together. It was easier to get together than to get apart. Sounds like some of my past relationships.

Had this happen before and you are correct. I bench bled the Master and slave and then assembled the tranny.....Went to connect the quick disconnect and I fought that bastard for a while before this dawned on me. Crack the bleeder and let off just a tid-bit of pressure. Worked like a Champ!
