Not something I would recommend for a shop or professional to do, but I bleed calipers like this at the hose instead. Mind you, this won't work after you messed up the thread but only if you decide not to risk trying to open in. Put something thin in instead of the brake pad, pump the pedal until the cylinder is extended. Then push back the pad with the pedal held down to get the bubbles out of the caliper itself, keeping the pedal down is to prevent from dirty fluid and bubbles to go back up the line. After this bleed the line the normal way using the hose attachment to open/close instead of the bleed valve. Not ideal, but works if you are on an extreme budget or in a pinch and need the car to drive and break without having to first source a caliper.

I agree eric, I live in the salt belt as well, It's just easier to hang a new caliper, And bleed, 4 of them if needed, Save yourself the headache and frustration and move on with your day. Enjoy life. I am just in all how fast vehicles rot in new york. We looked at a used vehicle the other day. After checking history it had been in new york for 9 years I walked away. not taking the chance.

Great job Eric, l recently had my abs pump replaced on a 2003 gmc 3/4 pu, and mechanic could not erase any of the codes after replacing pump. He said he could not get the computer to recognize the pump, so l now drive with the light on in the cluster.

You gotta wonder why bleeder screws aren't made from stainless. Maybe there's a good reason. Good job - without your experience, it would have been a much worse job! Ever thought of changing the name of your business to Rusty's Garage

As age takes its toll, have you considered joining the exodus from New York to a saner, warmer, salt-free state I'm driving to the Southeast to scope out regions so I can get away from Oregon's oppressive government and culture.

The upside to to riding along with Mr. O is I'd never get lost in Avoca. LOL. I could find the car wash, the ice cream place and the Post Office. How about the time lapse full ride along out to ol' Wilbert's U pull it

I’m surprised Eric didn’t have a whole Bad Times cart complete with Victor Jr. and his bottles of gas instead of one drawer. Kinda like the emergency crash cart at the hospital when someone flatlines.

Enjoyed watching! I didn't know you could use DOT 4 fluid on top of DOT 3. Make sure and charge the customer for the underbody flush when you test drove it in the rain! haha!

Yep. Just did Jeep Renegade rear brakes. Love the set screw that holds the rotor. Set screw delete mode with an occasional adult explication for good measure. yeah Fiat

If you move to Florida. Those bleeders are finger tight. The sunshine bouncing off the concrete with the sand blasting from the sugar sand keeps them finger tight

Gotta love over engineering just for an abs module and rear calipers.
The lug nut company are in business with the tool companies just to sell more tools. Lol.

Yep one more reason to buy that old 1967 chevy 4 dr malibu with the 283 power glide. Simple. Plus it will still run when the EMP has exploded

galvanic corrosion from dissimilar metals is about the dumbest idea you could have for a brake bleeder. almost like planned obselescence.

I heated up a bleeder valve on a VW bug and it exploded.
Found out later that brake fluid is very flammable and explosive.
