Removing master cylinder problem

I am replacing my master cylinder and rebuilding all four brake calipers on my 1972 911T. I have finished all of the calipers but I am struggling to get the master cylinder off. I got the three brake lines off using a flared 11mm wrench. I can’t figure out how to detach the two top lines as there is no visible nut only a rubber cover. These lines appear to go to the fluid reservoir.

Any help? I apologize for the poor pic.

Coldstart,

Those are just a force fit. They just pull out.

Part #: 901-355-929-00-M4

They can be difficult to get back in. I go in from a slight angle, rather trying to push them straight in.

Thanks. I thought so but I didn't want to force it.


Great handle name. I enjoyed that movie and good pun.

Clamp some large long nose visegrips on the tube and knock them upward with your palm. Same for install, but pull them in.
