I don't know what the the TR6 hoses are like, but many hoses have a
copper or aluminum crush washer on them. If this is missing or
previously crushed, the hose won't seal. They're most common where the
hose seals against a machined flat surface on the exterior of the
fitting, or cylinder or caliper.
