I've not had it fail on me yet that I can remember and I'm currently in the process of replacing all the original brake lines on my 49 year old 67 GTX right now. A shot of PB Blaster got most of them loose. The vice grips worked on a couple stubborn ones. I just have the two lines at the MC left.

Interesting idea. I did PB blast it a few hours before trying. Put some more on there and will try again tomorrow or the next day.
