Hi All- trying to find a fine-thread (32 tpi looks like) bleeder tool for the distribution block. The sensor switch is looking like 32 tpi, and the bleeder tool I bought is like 20 tpi, in fact the all seem to be 20 tpi. Any idea where/what to look for? (No company seems to be interested in specifying the tpi info on any of them out there)

Well, because the low pressure safety valve is in the distribution block, if you don't hold it from switching, its far harder if not impossible to clear out ALL the air. I don't have a vacuum bleeder, and gravity bleeding is not complete...

It's actually a moot point now anyway, because dopey me just noticed that my master has two bleeder screws on it; one for the front well, one for the rear well.... duh.

" master has two bleeder screws " Now that is an old style original Master Cylinder. I miss that kind with the bleeders right there so you can bench bleed without the bench. They are very hard to find anymore. I think the best bleed method is just having an intelligent helper work the pedal while you bleed. Unfortunately those are getting scarce too. PS- I have a 15 horse Johnson I used on a 1969 Lund. Sold the boat- kept the Johnson.
Cant replace old school... I grew up with that boat. Restored it twice, but the old Johnson 20 that was on it was done.... The 15 is smaller stronger and faster. Like the Six Million Dollar Man
