Screw Sheered Off

[Koum]

Was flushing my cooling system to fill with anti-freeze mixture as before It only had water in it.

and the bleeding screw above the thermostat housing has sheered off.

For now I've used gum putty for exhaust's to try and seal it and so far so good, but I do need a replacement screw.

Does anyone have a part number or what to search for ?

Cheers

This can be deleted as now feel a fool. Finally found a thread with the part number in it.

Sorry!

Just get an M6 x 1 banjo bolt with seal,it will be fine.

Or if the thread is screwed remove the housing, drill & tap the next size up

what lenth banjo bolt would I need?

[VeiRoN]

A 20mm one will be fine,I just bought one for my VTS.

you need a bleed screw not a banjo, an m6 capscrew will do till you get the right screw.

[VeiRoN]

You can use a banjo bolt with a dowty seal and still be able to bleed it when necessary.
