Default Bleed screw leak!

I changed my master cyl. and everything went well. After bleeding, 3 of the bleed screws are leaking. I have never had this happen before. It is not coming from the treads but it looks like out of the hole on the screw. Is there replacement bleed screws or any tips? Thanks in advance!

Those bleed screws are for Series Rovers, not coilers.
You want Part number RTC1115
I think the thread is M10x1x35mm so you should be able to find them at any foreign car parts store.

Sorry about that thought it said all makes and models. There are the speed bleeders too that work really well if you want to upgrade.

I installed those on one of my series rovers back in the 70's. Rusted to a lump in less than a year. They make stainless steel ones now, but you can buy a motivepower pressure bleeder for about what it would cost to replace the bleeders on just one car.

I somewhat enjoy running around like a chicken with it's head cut off, flopping under each tire then running and filling the MC while my wife and daughter laughs at me and keeps pumping the brakes.

Thank you! New ones in, all is good. Thanks for the specs! I picked them up without needing to order them!
