FYI Brake bleeder valve sizes are 9mm and 11mm

be sure to have these tools before starting the job... I read a number of procedures and the sizes were all over the place!

Forgive me if I'm wrong but any mechanic should have that size wrench before starting a brake bleed. If you were replacing the bleeder valves with speed bleeders, I could see making sure you have the right thread pitch and diameter.
