Just want to make sure I got the correct size wrench to open the bleeder on teh calipers before I take my wheels off.

Also anyone know how tight you have to torque the bleeder valve?

thanks.

alex

not very tight- you will be able to tell.

It might be 7mm, but I can't recall for sure- I do know I have to get out my set of tiny wrenches for it though.

Yummybud924

ok thanks. so it doesn't have to be an offset wrench or anything?

11mm

alex

for the bleeder? That sounds right for the hard line...

alex

I just double checked on the backs and its def smaller than 11- and no, no special wrenches.

Spidey944

hmm, just bleed all 4 corners a week ago, maybe the T's are diff. Sorry!

7mm...

thanks for the info I have both 7 / 11mm so shouldn't be problem, just thought it might be an offset wrench.

I just got my powerbleeder from paragon so hopefully this will be easy.

7 mm, bleed the pass. rear, then driver rear, then pass front and i think there is one more wheel to do last.

Then the slave cylinder... powerbleeder, all 5 points, 20 minutes.

Yummybud924

is it absolutely necessary to bleed the slave?

I changed mine out to 8mm speed bleeders. As I recall, the rears were 7mm and the fronts were 7 or 8mm.

ok another dumb question. Am I suppose to remove that little filter think inside the overflow tank before screwing on the power bleeder. It's a littel cup with a pinhole in it looks like it is there to prevent big piece falling into the tank.

do I take that out or leave it in?

Spidey944

in is fine
