I don't know about different model years, etc.  But on my '89 Syncro, the
front bleeder screws are 7mm and the rears are 8mm.  Go figure..  :-)   (May
have been changed by the PO - they also have different looking caps on
them).

The grand prize goes to Brent Christensen as he seems to have had the
correct answer. Thanks Brent.

After some re-adjustments of brake settings and a thorough search for
the 7mm wrench in my garage (which I did not find-found everything
but-so I did not bleed brakes yet) I still had same mushy brakes. But
after careful review of the master cylinder and master brake fluid
reservoir noticed it was at minimum level. Yep. Looks like the level was
to low to begin with and bet I introduced air to the lines.

Going out tomorrow to buy fluid and a 7mm wrench (right one I hope?) and
bleed brakes. Is there a wheel order I should follow to bleed these
brakes?

Thanks,
Lee
