Brake bleed nipple
I tried to bleed the brakes today & found a faulty bleed nipple on my Mustang2 front clip. Anyone know what thread the bleed nipple is? I don't think it's metric, it looks coarser. Thanks

But seriously it is either going to be a 1/4x28 or a 3/8x24 thread. Just measure one and see if it is 3/8 or 1/4. Or you can take it to a parts store and have them match it with the right one. |

Re: Brake bleed nipple
Tried to get one even went to ford dealer. As soon as I mention mustang I have 2 Hopes Bob & no. I looked at the bleed screw & noticed a small scratch in the seating so I put it in a lathe & polished it out. I've refitted it & will check it after work.

Re: Brake bleed nipple
Ya, It may be hard to get one in the UK. Around here just about any parts store will usually have multiple styles of brake bleeders.
