I have just upgraded all the brake lines, discs and pads on my car.
i blead 3 corners ... all OK! then i came to the final one and sheered off the bleed valve :Grrr

does anyone know the correct size required and where i can get one at short notice?

cheers

any motor factors should have one, it wont be FD specific. i dont know the thread size though, may be best to remoce the broken bit and match it up
There are performance cars and then there is the RX-7...........

12.3 second 1/4 mile, terminal speed of 122mph (1st ever drag run on a TO4R)

engine built by....... umm me! now powered by a T51 Kai......

what to do is get someone inside the car and pump up the pressre say 5-6 times then hold the pedal down, then with the brake pedal depressed crack open the brake line on the caliper and you should be able to bleed it this way
