[Healeys] soldering fitting to steel fuel line

I need some advise on how to solder the original brass/bronze fittings onto 
the end of new steel fuel line. I have tried cleaning both parts with scotch 
brite pad & using rosin flux & heating with a torch, but I cannot get the solder 
to flow onto the steel line. I was hoping to avoid using acid flux because it 
seems so hard to completely remove any traces resulting in corrosion in the 
area of the joint. Does anyone have any actual experience in this area?
