bit more info
blue bit is lose, no problem
red bits seem to be joined butno matter what i have tried will not undo.
they just free spin.
the new piece to go on doesnt have a thread, it looks like it clips into the top red piece from underneath

there is a clip holding it there :p.
see that bit of metal facing the can between the arrows, it's a turn up from the clip, et a screwdriver between it and the hose n the clip should come out, then the whole thing slides back thru the hole ;).

it might be a lil harder to get off "if" you managed to turn that nut a lil, as it may have burred the clip, but yeah should basically slide off, n that new 1 will replace the whole thing, the bit with both red arrows, it's just shorter, the lil recessed bit on the new 1 is where that clip locks into ;).
i'm sure u'll get it easy enough :p.

oh ok goodridge make some decent lines, although they make ADR and non ADR lines also though so just double check that they are the ADR ones.

I think that there should be some stamp/tag on them if they are ADR approved lines..
