I also found a new flaring tool. While screwing around with my old flaring tool making all new brake and clutch lines for this car, my tool was so hit and miss, one end turns out perfect and then the other sucks, then you start over and more than likely a new line section will be in order and then rebinding and fitting the line. This makes you want to start throwing stuff. I bought a 3/16" and a 1/4" Atlas flaring tools that were 45 bucks each. They make a factory looking flare every time and they are super compact able to get in tight areas to make flares while the line is on the car. When I was all done and bled both systems there was no leaks due to the perfect double flares. In the past I would need to tighten the fittings to the moon several times then finally they would quit leaking. I highly recommend this tool because it is fast, simple, cheap and works.
