Need advice on tube flaring problem...
#4
X2 on too much tube sticking out.
For the first flare the tube should stick out a little bit. I use the die as a height gage.
When you finish the first flare the tube should be flush with the clamp, not sticking out.
The second flare should just push it into the clamp a little more and widen it out.

I can get you a dimension for initial stick out if you need it.
Also ... are you using the correct die for the first flare?
