Quick Question Rear wheel brake cylinder nipple size

[wigginke]

Guys

I made the mistake of fitting and bleeding my rear brakes without checking the AF size of the Rear cycliner bleed nipple

Can anyone tell me the size that they would expect they should be

I will probably need to go buy a ring spanner

Thanks in advance

What this does indicate that after six months of late nights in the garage my car is pretty much ready for its fist drive since its engine was removed and stripped in 1989

Cheers Kevin

7mm I think Kevin unless you do have AF size in which case try 1/4 or 5/16. I might be going mad but I think I have a 9/32 but then again I might have imagined that. The fronts are considerably bigger but you probably know that.

Amazing what a quick search throws up http://www.stag.org.uk/forum/showthr...ghlight=nipple

Hi Kevin, try and use a hex wrench rather than a multi-point, those little buggers round off too easily. Martin.
