Hitting with a hammer makes no sense. The treads are holding it back anyway.

I think the torque spec on that is "strength of one man"

I could see doing this if you tighten it and it’s leaking

Wouldn’t the threads on the banjo bolt keep it from crushing the washers?

use a tire valve stem to stop fluid from leaking when banjo bolt is removed, makes less mess, and bleeds brakes faster.

If it works it works I’m going to try this as I often get leaks with the new washers sometimes put the old ones back on with no problems.
