[Healeys] Brake Line Clips

[Michael MacLean]

My BN2 project is slowly progressing, even in this Siuthern California heat.  90+ most days.  The garage is a hot box during the day, so I work mostly on the car after the sun goes down.  Last night I was instally my present brake lines i purchased years ago from the late Doug Finespanner.  His pre-bending was quite good and it was easy to figure out which line went where.  Then I came to installing the hairpin clips to locate the lines.  I have not been able to put one clip in.  Is there some technique to istalling these clips? I tried pinching the top tines with the brake line in the rounded seat and the pushing it in the hole.  I could not get it to go.  Anyone tell me exactly what the clip is supposed to look like, thickness of the clip, etc.  I have the clips supplied by Moss that double for the fuel lines.Mike MacLean
