Alright well i flushed both front and rear brakes and noticed that my front right and rear caliper bleeder screws were seeping around the threads. Anyway to fix that maybe take the bleeders out and clean em or should i just replace the calipers?

 

you can use teflon tape around the threads.....

 

+1 teflon tape or just pick up new bleeders. Replacing the calipers would just be a waste of money.

 

wouldnt brake fluid eat thru the teflon tape though? had sucks i gotta take em off and bleed again dam it lol

Good thing i did that stuff was nasty brown

 

nope...the teflon will survive....i have it on mine...i couldn't figure out for the life of me why i wasn't getting any good suction on my brake bleeder as i was breeding, turns out, i had a slow leak on my bleeder screw...it wasn't dripping but i couldn't bleed properly...added some tape....all good to go!

 

Yea i had that problem too. Oh well seems like teflon it is. Cheap honda parts lol. Just like those clips that hold the 2fairings on the bottom they just plain SUCK.

Alright ill give it a try when i get home i hope i didnt screw em up by tightening em a bit.

 

pssss...check your bleeder screws again meng...brake fluid will eat through it in time.

i used a goop material that bakes onto the bleeder screws from the speedbleeder site. speedbleeders coat their screws with it to allow for better seal. if you want, send it to me, i goop it for you and send it back.

Thats what i figured, ill take em out and clean em up see if the taper is alright or if its crushed. Might be some crude stuck in there cuz the left one is fine

 

Yes, the fluid will eat through the teflon over time (actually a few minutes) but if you have a good seal once you crank it down it's OK.

 

Right Jaybird....i'm sorry my situation only needed it to remedy the little air seeping in during bleeding....once tightened it has no issues so my teflon was for an isolated purpose....
