Hey Guys , I am new here , so I am hoping someone can help me , I have a 2005 Electraglide that has a front caliper leaking thur the bleeder, It just started this year ,, I replaced the bleeder seems better but still leaks . Im scared the fluid will start damaging the paint , I dont know how tight it should be , and maybe I am infor a caliper . Any help from you guys would be appreciated Its leaking up thru the bleeder not around the treads , sorry for not mentioning that .

 

could try wiping it down and using a little teflon tape or pipe dope.

 

80-100 inch lbs is bleeder screw torque

 

Wrong! You may have some crap or rust on the threads or seat preventing it from sealing, or maybe it was tightened too tight and the sealing surface is damaged.

 

Is it leaking out the bleeder hole on the end or around the threads?
Different fix depending on which one it is.

 

thru the hole, which voids my earlier post.
