I was told a tip recently that works on here

take the old ones, apply heat till they are proper hot, then reuse them and tighten

Tried it Monday when doing work i think and it's worked fine no issues to report

Also when you buy new hoses they come with washers mate, my HELL, VENHILL and Goodride kits all came supplied

They are not new but recycled and as to heating them up did you do it at gas mark 9

Thanks for the reply mate.

I used a camping stove in the garage

That works for the copper ones, not for aluminium ones.

Hold them with a bit of wire (not insulated electrical wire, dummy!) instead of using pliers; you'll also soften the pliers......

And let them cool down slowly, don';t quench them in water or oil as they will just harden again.
It's called annealing.
