I have been wrenching on my cars and doing brake work for years. Along the way I have learnt never to crack open a brake line unless I have replacement calipers or drum slaves because no matter what i do they always seem to shear. Using extractors usualy just makes thing worse as they break off in the hole.

Anyone have a brilliant tip for me?

This is not only for my 120, same thing with 245 and my VW Eurovan.

Thanks as always for your collective help, Patrick.
