I would appreciate suggestions to cure the following.
I have a very slight weep on the joint where the standard Vans nylon brake
line enters into the aluminum master cylinder fitting.

Dave,
You may need to give the nylon fitting another turn into the aluminum master
cylinder. If you are like me...I was reluctant to give the nylon another
turn when it didn't clock right into the proper position..so the threaded
connection was not really tight. I then fought leaky connections for a year
until I finally decided I had to give it another turn and risk stripping the
nylon threads. I just did another one last week on one of the pedal
cylinder. I turned it about 300 dergrees. The threads didn't strip and the
leak appears to be gone.
