Scott,

Obviously I'm learning from you guys tonight but from the few DIY sites I've
been to for brake line repair it appears there are single, double and bubble

different.

Here is one of many pages I've read (see top paragraph), I'm interested in
any comments agreeing (or disagreeing) with the author:
