if its a dual master ( which im guessing , you MAY be trying to put the pipe in the sensor hole ? because they are all the same thread
also us the pipe union pushed all the way up on the pipe ? try lubricating it with a little brake fluid

i got it on but the thread doesnt go all the way when doinng it up
like the nut bit is a little away from the master cylinder is this ok the pipes seem to be in ok and no leaks but still no pedal have to bleed them before any pedal
