[Spridgets] Weepy fittings at MC

[Phil Nase]

I have the brakes and clutch bled but I'm getting some silicone  
weeping at the MC pipe fittings.

Under pressure the fluid is leaking out up the pipe from the inside of  
the fitting.  I used Napa brake line for the clutch and the brake  
lines are from a good source.  Both are leaking.

Now what?

Also, should I have a copper washer between the rear hose and the  
brass union on top of the diff?  I have a small leak there too.  I  
never had to tighten the bleeder valves as much as I have this time.   
It's the first time I used silicone.  Is it more prone to leak that  
the regular fluid?

After this all I need to do is go over the wiring be sure I'm still  
all hooked up, put oil and coolant in it, set the valves and get the  
timing close and fire it.  It should be exciting.  Anyone want to come  
watch my new engine leak all over:)   It's also the first time I ever  
replaced all the engine seals so I'm expecting to be doing a lot of  
trouble shooting (mopping up).
