Dorman - HELP Brake Bleeder Screw P/N:12707
If a seized, snapped or missing bleeder is holding up your brake job, the Dorman brake bleeder screw 12703 from the Dorman - HELP line gives the hydraulic system a working bleed point again. It is a Quick Bleeders screw sized 1/4-28 x 1 in. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1990-1993 Volvo 240, 1975-1989 Volvo 244 and 1975-1989 Volvo 245, and is listed for both front and rear positions on the listed applications. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
A bleeder screw threads into the brake's bleed port. During bleeding it is loosened so trapped air and old fluid can escape, then tightened to seal the port. Signs this Dorman bleeder screw may need replacing include a screw that is seized or snapped, a rounded hex, damaged threads, or fluid seeping at the bleeder. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct torque and bleeding procedure.
