Just a quick question.. What size wrench do I need to disconnect the brake lines at the rear? Changing out my wheel cylinder and I wanted to buy a flared nut wrench to remove the fuel line.

I think its 10mm but I am not sure and my online manual doesn't have it in there.

not 2 sure but theres nothing like having a few sizes with u and try them all

imported_Moe_Mentum

Yeah I wish I could buy a set of flare nut wrenches but buying one alone is already $12 and the only size I'll ever need will be to remove brake lines\fuel lines.

imported_kungfugrip

buy,. use, return.. thats what i do lolo

imported_Moe_Mentum

That's what I'll be doing I guess... if only I could get the size! No one knows the size of a Brake line?

imported_kickz

its usually a 10 .. hah but its rusted or rounded .. =) its a vise grip size

imported_Moe_Mentum

haah thanks Kickz.. I picked up a 10mm today so hopefully it works. CT is pretty cool I was able to loan a one man Vaccuum pump to blead the brakes. They also have lots of other tools you can borrow for free.. pretty neat.

im oretty surfe there are 2 sizes on the 2001 n up civic i think its 9mm in the front and 10 in the back

imported_Team Rukus

its 10mm 100 percent on the 6th generation models.

imported_Moe_Mentum

Yup 10mm. Question, can you buy bleeder screws from the dealer? One of mine is stripped, and if I can get it off with vice grips I'd like to replace it.

stupid hondas..

and yes you can get bleeder screws at dealers. You can get them at NAPA and c/t also.

imported_Moe_Mentum

Yeah got one from the dealer. $7.00 wow talk about mark up lol. I had went to Canadian Tire and they told me they don't sell them. I am pretty sure he just lied because he didn't look it up. Oh well. Hopefully I can get the rounded one off.

chris_si98

c/t has them in the back. They don't list them on the computers but they have a bunch in the back.. you just need to know the size of the one you need
