NOW: Sourcing Bleeder Valve [WAS] new master cyl - bench bleed?

[saracornelous at mcleodusa.net (koabi)]

Car in question is 86 Cabby with drum rears.

I easily found the front bleeder valves, but not the rears.  Since I
just snapped a rear one off (and it was still open) I really need to
replace it.  Any local chains known for carrying this thing?

Assuming I can get the leftover of the valve out, is there any reason
why I couldn't use a bolt to plug the hole temporarily?  I figure I'd
need thread tape at the very least, though.

Irritated,
Koabi

PS: I just took the scirocco off the road for an engine swap which is
why the cabby died.  Conspiracy.

Well, it's faster and uses less brake fluid to bench bleed it.
But you don't have to.....

  Do I have to bench bleed a new MC or can I get away with bleeding once
  it's installed?

   

  TIA,
