Chuck everything if it 38 years old and replace it with new. The line on my Dart looked good but I cut it open and was rusting from the inside out. As important as the brakes are don't skimp now.



Yup. Replace it all.

But, if you're in a pinch, grab a deep-well 6 point METRIC socket that ALMOST fits the bleeder (snug) and drive it on with a hammer. Then sheer it off (I mean drive it off ).

That works for me.
