Have Had a great rear caliper. Bought a set of 4 rebuilts a year ago and just now need to put them on. 3 are perfect. Went to adjust the outer vent clearance screw on the rear, and suddenly fluid started poring out of the screw. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

?? Did I overtorque the screw - Strip it out of the Piston - Bust a seal - or what? What happened? I've not seen the inside of the caliper. Is there an Oring or seal under the venting screw? What keeps the fluid in?

Rebuild or replace?
Thanks for the info Bill
