Holly Sh@t, this thing is driving me crazy:mad: . I can't get the damn thing off and it's DRIVING ME NUTS!!!! I already tried vice grips and whatever but just can't get it off:notgood:

I'm talking about the feel line that extends to the bottom of the car. The 14mm nut keeps stripping away and I can't do anything about it.
What are my solutions? Did anyone else encounter this problem? If so, how did you deal with it?
 
i had that problem, whati di d is cut the line and when you're put it back together with a piece of hose and two clamps. Doesnt sound good but works.

This really is the best solution. For a future reference before you go to work on it soak the fitting in wd-40 or similar penetrating oil the night before and let it sit. Then use a line wrench to crack it loose the next day. This always works for me and that is coming from an experienced corvette mechanic, old corvettes always have frozen fuel/ brake lines. Sounds like you already stripped the fitting good so i would go with the above solution.
