Brake Bleeder Screw
Brake Bleeder Screw
I broke a couple brakelines and replaced them but while trying to bleed the brakes I broke one of the bleeders. Any idea on how hard these are to replace or any advice from someon who has done it.?.?.?
Thanks,
Robert

if the bleeder is broke off and tight(not leaking) just bleed it at the line instead, usually a bleeder is at the highest point, and if its a caliper you can bleed the line (you will likely get 90% or more air out) better if removing caliper(line attached) tilt so banjo bolt is highest point, dont forget to put a block of wood or something solid in the caliper to keep the piston from popping out while you bleed it
My guess is there is no air in the caliper, if you were only replacing the lines, so if thats the case just bleeding at the line will likely work, you will know if you got it all out if the pedal feels spongy (like a tennis ball)
...or replace the caliper with a new one
