I used a small piece of copper sheet and made my own washer and it worked fine. Also, the alignment has to be perfect and tighten 5 or 6 times to work the flare

I've used the copper "flare" gaskets before and they worked great. Also one thing a friend told me is to use them if I'm using stainless steel lines, since stainless is harder and may not seal properly.

Finally finished this task. I installed the copper washers and grease in both fittings and so far no leaks at either connection. Thanks.
