I have a oil leak in my braided line and i want to replace the line Not the fittings...can i save the fittings by removing them? and how hard is it to just remove the fittings and replace the line :confused:
 
If it's an Earl's or the like it's easy they come apart but if it's a factory fitting that's crimped you can't. You can just go buy a couple fittings and a new piece of hose and make a complete new one for around 25. bucks depending on what fittings you need to use.
 
need a vice to hold the fitting for assembly and a clean way to cut the line

Make sure to wrap the line with tape before making the cut or they will fray. I use a dremel with a cut off wheel. There is probably a better way but thats what works for me.
