clutch slave bleeding screw BROKEN

[vic_325]

So, i bleed my clutch today everything was going good, but when i finished bleeding the clutch i tightened the bleeding screw too much and it broke. i pumped the clutch whole bunch of times and nothing leaked out of the broken bleeder. Took it out for a drive for five mins (maybe more) shifting, pressin the brakes( jammed the brakes a few times too) no brake fluid leaked.

is it safe? the bottom of the bleeder is in there tight but can i run around with it like that until i fix it?

and how can i go about fixing this? id rather not change the slave cylinder just because of the bleeder screw.

Thanks, Vic.

depending on how much of the bleeder screw is exposed, you might be able to use an easy out, and run a tap in there to make sure the threads werent damaged. but you should be fine with it broken, as long as you had the bleeder snug before it broke.
