I can't tell you the length but the diameter of brake lines is commonly 3/16" and rarely bigger - some older vehicles and heavier vehicle use 1/4".
The size of the pipe is intuitive by simple comparison or measuring with a caliper but there is several different threads, lengths, diameters of pipe nuts in common use and it is important to get these right first time.
It is also very important the replacement pipe is formed exactly as the original, follows exactly the original route and is adequately secured.
When one brake pipe fails usually others aren't far behind and the failure of a pipe should signal a very close examination of the others, especially looking for corrosion scale or pitting close to the wheels. Replacing four or five pipes on a large vehicle can use a whole 25 foot roll of pipe.
It might be better to invest in a cheap pipe flaring kit and the materials to produce your own pipes - or remove the old pipes and ask a local repairer to make new pipes to those patterns. That was my job as an apprentice and I must have produced a mile of pipes for outside customers.

You can do this by raising the car front end as high as possible and filling the coolant recovery tank to the brim leave the cap off, then run engine until it reaches operating temperature, then shut it down and run cold water over the radiator core, the coolant tank will be sucked dry most likely as the air is purged and replaced by coolant.

many possibilities. most common are: bad gas, dirty fuel filter, bad fuel pump, clogged fuel pick-up in tank, dirty/malfunctioning injectors....etc etc etc. Also possible that you got your spark plug wires wet and have a bad connection.
Engine runs then stops
It's most likely one of three things. It could be a plugged fuel filter, a bad fuel pump. or a bad throttle positioning sensor.
