I'm concerned that I may have to cut the brake pipe where it joins the caliper hose. This means I will have to replace the union nut. That isn't too hard a job it seems, but I need to know the type of flare so that I can buy a kit. My feeling is that it is a metric bubble flare, but there is an alternative that was used at the time, and this is the double flare. Each needs its own specialist kit, and they aren't interchangeable. Does anyone know the flare type for a 1988 744 which came with a B200E engine? __________________ Cinderella ( Cinders ) - 1988 Volvo 740 saloon with B230E engine The Hoe - 1990 Volvo 740 estate with B200E engine The House - 2005 LDV Convoy hightop with Ford Transit turbo engine.
