Jim

That is exactly what I did and they sent me FOUR Speedbleeders!  Seems they
forgot the clutch or could not supply the correct size.  This did not
inspire confidence particularly with a car where the brakes changed mid
production.

The part number is SB3824, which translates to 3/8 x 24 pitch and 1.1
inches long. I have not yet tried them, so I cannot guarantee that they
even fit the brakes (late model, I believe).

The clutch is my current problem and I may see if they fit the slave
cylinder.  However I suspect that they were intended for the brakes.
Perhaps the brakes and the clutch are the same.

Does anyone have a list of the obscure screw threads on a TR6?  The Repair
Operation Manual appears to specify some, but not all.  For instance, are
all the grease nipples 1/8 BSP?
