bigdaz27 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Posted February 14, 2010 i got some mk2 granada brake calipers and one of the bleed nipples has broke of anyone got any tips on getting it out or should i just take it to an engineer i want to send them for refurbishment but they dont want to no unless the bleed nipple has been removed or some one that could remove and refurbish them would be good
GT_lenny Posted February 14, 2010 Report Posted February 14, 2010 they usually come out with "easy outs" - ask at machine mart
Grizzley Dell Posted February 14, 2010 Report Posted February 14, 2010 unless your realy good with a drill and tap set i would take it to an engineer. ive managed to drill 1 before but i had to take it out a bit further and cut a new thread in it, then find a bigger nipple to fit. pain in the rump.
banarama Posted February 14, 2010 Report Posted February 14, 2010 try and centre punch it out gently from the thread side ,tap it to the middle of the nipple / hopefully it will break away from the edge.
