You're welcome. If you think about it, brake components (rubber bits in the
calipers and such) are designed to withstand temperatures in excess of 300
degrees Fahrenheit. I have successfully removed frozen bleeders
Karl.
The method that works for me is to flatten out the hard line retaining clip
at the junction of the metal and rubber junction bracket.
Pull down a little on the rubber hose to free the hose fitting and unscrew
the hose junction from the hard line, whilst holding the flare nut immobile.

Heat is an option I had not considered. Thanks for that idea. I have a
little creme brulee torch that might work well. I usually use it for heat
shrinking wire ends.
I think the flare nut is seized to the brake line also, so maybe it will
let loose with some heat also.

Okay. One thing at a time.
Order and replace vent caps. Master cylinder leak solved. You may also want to
replace the reservoir to MC grommet also. Pressure bleed away.
Brake hose to steel line? Replacing hose?
Mapp gas torch is your friend. Remember, rubber is flammable, as is brake
YOu miss the point. IT is a canvass upon which to produce something to survive

I'd try a gravity bleed. Slow, but it should get the job done.
You could also get a long hose, attach to bleed bolt on caliper, run the other
end to the reservoir, and then pump the brake pedal. This circulates the fluid
and gets all the air out. If you're not trying to change the fluid,
I suspect that it is a conspiracy to eliminate petrol powered cars in favor of
virtue-signalling and simpler to control electric cars. A diesel or gas car
has a goodly range and swift refueling. A battery car takes almost an hour to
fill, and you can only go less than 300 miles. Range

Looks pretty clean but is there a more BORING "color" combination than
white/palomino? Mine at least has a blue leather interior.

The average Chevy dealer has zero Clean Turbo Diesel Cruzes on the lot. A

they sell the small diamond strike anywhere

they work just fine on either the box or

Something like $1.50 for a pack of 10 boxes
