I have been successful using a technique that George Riehl taught me...
with a small pry tool open up the coupling. It is soft and can be opened usually
without damage but be delicate with it opening just a small section at a time.
Then cut off two inches or more of the rotted tubing. Clean out the
coupling thoroughly and put a little sealer into the it. Insert the clean
good section of the tube into the coupling and recrimp. Reinstall in the
trans with new o rings. ...Reducing the two inches or so at the other end will
not cause any problem since you above the level in the trans. I am sure
that others have tried this with success.
