I am getting quite frustrated with my brake lines.
I had a heck of a time getting all of the leaks in the brake lines fixed when I was building the plane.
I thought I had all of them corrected, and nothing leaked for the first 80 hours of flight. However about a week ago I noticed a drop of brake fluid on the floor on the right side.
I've traced it to the 90 elbow fitting on the bottom of the right master cylinder on the right side.
How should I go about correcting this? I can try to get another turn on it, but that might not be possible. I can put some teflon tape on the threads, but I believe that is frowned on? What else?
Thanks,
