Clutch hydraulic line nut size?
 
I need to replace the clutch master cylinder on a car that is 70 miles away. Can anyone tell me what size wrench in need for the hydraulic line fitting that attaches to the master? TIA

A 12mm open end fitted my (just now) and a 13mm ratchet box-end fits the bulkhead nuts.

That said, wouldn't it make more sense to just take a metric set of wrenches and sockets w/ you? (Sounds like you're traveling pretty light - to take the exact (one and only) wrench(es) w/ you!

You also might want to have a pair of needle nose pliers and a hook set in the bag too.

Thanks Paul, just wanted to make sure I have the right size flare nut wrench with me. I dont use open end wrenches on flare nuts when I can can avoid it.

It?s that clip up under the dash that makes my back hurt to type about it.

Spend 10 minutes to take the driver's seat out 1st.
Your back and typing finger will thank you...
