Well Volks, in typical airhead fashion I've been totally ignoring (because
it terrifies me, no doubt) my own little problem which is that I've sprung
a leak in the line going aft on the right side.   I need it fixed pronto
and I could use any and all advice, particularly gotchas lurking if I do it
myself versus different gotchas from a shop or from <gasp> the dealer.  I
presume that it would be richly foolish to simply patch up the offender and
not replace the rest; is that too cautious?  And to the nearest thousand or
two, what might I be looking at?
