Need size + thread count for brake bleed screws
Going to order a set of Speed Bleeders, but would like to know the size and thread count specs called for on a C4 (1995), if anyone knows. Ecklers does have them for C4's but their price is about 50% higher than places that list them by size and thread count. Eckler's = $14.99/pair vs. Summit $9.95 a pair but at Summit you have to specify size and thread count.

They have a web site http://www.speedbleeder.com that has pages for applications and part numbers and a chart that lists size and thread count for all of their bleeders.
Jeff has the size right! The Speed Bleeder part number is SB1010. Their chart also indicates that they also have a stainless steel version SB1010S.

Re: Need size + thread count for brake bleed screws (18carfan)
Thanks C4cruiser. Just picked up a set from Pep Boys in that size. Hi Jeff. The LT4 knock module is working out good, but I'm afraid I need to take the car in and let them start it up cold and listen to the engine in the vicinity of the #8 cylinder-- Getting a faint mechanical knocking sound coming from that area when she's warming up, that goes away once warmed up closer to operating temp. Someone on the forum suspected a wrist pin problem developing. But then I've also been told that some piston slap is considered 'normal' (?) Thank goodness I've got GMPP on it. Just need to find good time to leave it overnight for an opinion. Any tips on how to deal with GMPP on it appreciated, because I'm afraid they might try to call it 'normal' in hopes they can dodge a claim bullet so to speak, since the warranty goes out August '03. Final say is always up to physical inspection by GMPP adjustor.
