Just so you know Parker stores sell a flexible coated steel braided line that's pretty amazing to work with

Thanks!

Not really an emergency just after hours repair I was just curious about what filter could replace it if we did run across this issue again.

I just ran into a situation where I needed it last night and was too far away from a part store that would carry it / some closed. We run a mobile repair business and have a truck last night that wouldn't run was just trying to find a temporary alternative.

Is there possibly a smaller version that would be more readily available that it crosses to?

Wonder if you can spray kroil from the top to get the threads lubricated
