1990 Clutch Slave Bleed Screw
I recently replaced my slave cylinder because it was seeping slightly.
I had good pedal pressure and good throwout bearing travel.
I want to rebuild my original stamped steel slave cylinder but it appears the factory bleeds this slave and then breaks off the bleed nipple and puts a rubber cap over it. All the instructions for rebuild state you should remove the factory bleed screw with an easy-out. I removed the old one but I have not been able to find a replacement. It appears to be about a 12mm fine thread and all the ones I've found in parts stores are either much smaller or coarse thread SAE.
Anyone have a source for this bleed screw?
Thanks,
Mick
Guess no one has ever had this problem. Bill had one at ZR51 Performance.
Great guy to deal with zfdoc.com
