Replaced rear brake bleeder screws (silaramic grease on threads) (47547-12010)
I see. That could be. The threads are the same but perhaps one set is slightly longer. I didn't look at my stock bleeders too closely when I removed them.

Yeah, I don't think the dripping matters, as long as it doesn't drip when tightened up.
Mine dripped a bit when I did them but all turned out fine.
I just put a 2x4 under the pedal and made sure the master cylinder lid was closed when pumping. I pumped the brake about 15 pumps, then checked/topped off the MC level, rinse repeat. Put about a pint through each caliper and it stops GREAT now.


There IS pressure in the system, in the form of the brake booster. It stays depressed where you left it, more or less, unless you pump the brakes a couple time with the system off.

OK, thanks for all the posts, I feel a bit better. Bled two more times, 3/5 of a bottle. Will proceed with the TBU. Was wanting to flush the old fluid anyway....
