broken bleeder valve..
Good morning to everyone that actually come's on the site early in the am!
Ok so I'm doing brakes on a 1993 Mazda MX-6, calipers were f***ed, replaced them..
Bleeding the brakes i broke one of the bleeder valves (really didnt use that much force on it, weak?) anyone its on tight, nothing is coming out... how ever still needs to be replaced (the car is still parked)...
Would any of you guys use a strip screw remover tool to pull that out? or any other smarter better ideas would be appreciated

then your screwed. your better off taking it off the car. its 3 bolts. wow a hole thirty seconds to take it off the car. hmmmmmmmm. but me personally i would drill and tap it. but if you bought new calipers there should have been no problem gettin it loose and tight again.

Sorry for not being clear, not the shops fault at all.. this was after i was done bleeding it...
My cousin has very limitied tools and i didnt bring any of my own... So i used a ratched with a deep 8mm socket... didnt realize how much force i was really putting on it..
There's still about 1/4" sticking out... might be able to use pliers to turn it out...
