• This would be sensible. a hole drilled and appropriate metal thread bonded in.

    However I bought a glue gun and stuck it in instead. Oh, and made a nice cover over the top. Same principle though right? Bonded etc.
    It's flexible enough that I can chew it off and then pop out the screw with a chisel or something levering underneath when I need to blead the brakes again for my Black RX4s that are on back order.

    Would add; I tried PTFE (25p option) first and then some tape but it was oozing ever so slightly. I'm heavy and go fast downhill soooooo.... went in all (glue) guns blazing.

    Took me back 20 years to DT at school too 😁😁

  • Most of the sealing for the bleed cap comes from the rubber o-rings rather than the thread.

    Did you inspect this? Potentially this was damaged too and PTFE plus new o-ring/ bleed cap would do the job?
