Don't chase any threads unless they won't screw on without great difficulty.
If you_ must_ chase stainless try and get a few drops of cutting oil. Quite
important with stainless.Probably available from your local machine shop.
Also only use a plug tap, I think that used to be known also in UK as a 3rd
tap and I guess that's what Mike Moore refers to as a "bottom tap." But try
to avoid using any taps there's a great danger of cutting another thread or
buggering the existing one, which will render the whole brake line unsafe.
