Is there a brass washer on your bleed screw? IIRC, there's a very thin metal washer on the banjo. It can stick to the bleed screw when you take it out, but if it doesn't get put back, it can leak.

Jerry, when I put new calipers on the back of my car, I used the new banjo washers that came with the calipers. They leaked like crazy, so I got a new set from the local Pontiac dealer. Put them in...no more problems. Of course, that might just have been crazy luck, but it's what worked for me.

Congrats on your accomplishment! Betty's up and walking on all 4's! That's the important thing. Now you can take time to shower her with all the little things girls like... the SoundBox, would be a nice start and treat her to some hightest gas!
Good work, JerryJaloppy
