You need to BClear. But I'll try to answer anyway. A line could be damaged trying to repair somthing else, raising on a lift or trying to repair it or another one. Brake lines are funny, especially in the northeast where we have cold and ice and salt. Fuel and brake lines rot out. If this happens to you, don't screw around, replace them all before you go through multiple repairs and heartache. When they get weak from rot, simple movements cause them to fail. If you try to fix one, another begins to leak as they are generally run together. Pukenstein@aol.com
What else can I help you with?
How do you find a hole in a brake line when no fluid is coming out. it does not have a slave cylinder and the master cylinder was just replaced.?
If there is no fluid coming from the brake line, there are two possibilities: 1. there is no damage in the brake line, merely air in the brake line. 2. The brake fluid may already be completely depleted. To find out, get some water with a bunch of dish soap in it, but try not to make a lot of suds. Pour the water over the whole brake line and watch the line while someone pumps the brake pedal. If bubbles form, then there's the hole. No bubbles? Air in the line or perhaps damage in the master or slave cylinder.
