The British brake line fittings are different from the domestic ones.  One 
has threads that run all the way down the nut and the other has an 
unthreaded portion.  But I forget which is which.  Obviously, the fully threaded nuts 
will not work properly in the fittings that are not fully threaded but the 
opposite should work OK.

So check the fittings before you take off.
