Broken off Bleeder Nipple ??
Well, I'm still working on those rear calipers. I've got them both all torn down. But I had one subborn nipple. Rusted in there pretty bad. I've been a good boy, soaked her a couple days with PB Blaster. Needless to say the head is rounded off from PO's.
So I started with a small pair of Vice Grips. No Go. Went to the next size. Opps. Snapped to clean off flush with the casting.
Tryed the E-Z out. Doesn't budge it. I didn't twist too hard. I didn't want to snap it off, too. BTDT before.
What is next ??? It is a 2 nipple caliper. So its no a total lost cause. But I'd hate to fight an air bubble to get a hard pedal.
