Help! Need to find tools!
Hey All,
I need some quick assistance, I'm in need of a place to buy a 10mm flare wrench (in Ottawa area preferably)... I've got some brake lines on my B2200 that really really need to be replaced (one hemorrhaged fluid on me the other night, leaving me stranded in a parking lot...)
(I've checked the usual crappy tire, etc, to no avail...)
Also, if anyone has some leads on M10 x1.0mm flare nuts for 3/16" line, I picked up 7 at Ottawa Fastener (all they had) but I need 10 total... (yes, I'm replacing ALL the lines...)
Any help appreciated!
Matt

...also, its becoming increasingly apparent that the MasterCrap flaring tool I purchased is no more able to produce a double flare than I am able to with my pinky finger... So if anyone has any suggestions? (Or a snap-on dealer in ottawa?)

Thanks for the offer, I've found a source though... (for new, shiny ones! ),
And I got a flare nut wrench, Napa hooked me up, 7 bucks for the one I needed (of course, immediately afterwards I saw the set listed at Princess Auto...lol... ahh well, only need 10mm right now...)
Also as far as flaring tools are concerned, the NAPA UltraPro flaring tool works wonderfully... its incredible the difference in the flares (it actually makes double flares, MasterCrap was making messed up single flares... lol)
