hi all. I have just fitted my Rivco risers and as part of the install I rerouted the brake line. Now reinstalled I am getting a leak around the connection to the master cylinder. The leak is between the brake line , washer and fastening nut. I have tightened it and am afraid of breaking it. Is the washer that is there a special type that seals as I would expect some type of special seal in this area as the pressure of the fluid is high? Any thoughts would be welcome. Thanks in advance
 
Try turning the washer over if this does not work just take the washer to local parts house and they can match it up.
 
No it is not just tell them you need a crush washer and they should be able to match it.
 
They are a copper washer, try cracking the fitting loose abit and wiggle it back and forth then nip it back up, hopefully that might help :thumbsdown:
