my truck has been sittin for a while with out a master cylinder and one stainless line missing. could the hard lines be contaminated with dirt??? its only been a couple of months. should i take them off and clean them???
 
Yes they can. Those wasps that build nests in tubing can really cause problems. My front diff vent line was plugged from one of those, strong enough blockage to blow fluid out the diff cover gasket.
 
i thought so. but, i dont think theres any wasp crap in there. I'll just shoot some break cleaner in there then blow it out with air that should be good enough.
thx
