Hopefully they have guidance on what to do to resolve. Luckily I had a spare and only missed one session
Strange, we have installed literally hundreds of braided SS brake line sets over the years, and the only one we ever had to replace was damaged by engine pieces exiting the former power plant. We only use one brand of lines, and have never had to twist them, or do anything else to make them fit. They literally dropped right in with no fuss whatever.
