bleeder screw snapped
So I put fuel and brake lines in my car and all the bleeders were either siezed or already broken off this is a 99 civic with drum brakes on rear. for the front i can just get reman calipers as for the rear are the bleeders in the wheel cylinders so i would just need 2 of those?
(having trouble getting a firm pedal after replacing the lines. when i replaced them i forgot to put the pedal to floor while replacing)
thanks.

generously and treat them often. Let them soak. Also, be careful
about the penetrant contacting rubber parts, eg, caliper dust
boot, CV half shaft boot, etc.
For the broken bleeders, if they occur on the wheel cylinders
(drums brakes), simply replace the wheel cylinders. Order
from Rock Auto. If they occur on the caliper, you can either
replace the caliper or try and remove the broken bleeder
w/ a power drill equipped w/ left-handed drill bits. Any bolt
you attempt to remove this way should be first treated w/
PB Blaster. You may also want to have some cutting oil
available although the bleeder is pretty much a tube, which
allows for a good start.
