Kim,

I HIGHLY recommend CuNiFer lines (copper-nickel alloy). It's very easy to
work and it will not rust. Available  from Napa and CarQuest. Be sure your
flare tool does BUBBLE flare and get the proper nuts.

Neil is right. Inspect the whole length of the line especially behind the
clips that anchor the line along it's length.
