    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Brake hose and Banjo Bolt

does special care need to be taken to line up the fluid hole on the banjo fitting and the bolts hole that secures it to the caliper. I'm just having some trouble bleeding the front brakes I finally got. I checked some old technical posts and found some other things to try ie: priming master cylinder and checking for clogged lines. I was mainly curious about the fluid holes since my manual doesn't mention anything about it. Thanks
 
No worry about the banjo,it's grooved around the diameter, sometimes they're just a pain to get to bleed after they've been drained, do one side at a time
 
i picked up a $5 brake bleeding kit at Sears (i think most auto parts stores will have them too) and it made bleeding my brakes a piece of cake. hook it up, loose the bleed screw, pump pump pump, done. :)

I'm going to hit discount auto on the way home today and see it they have one. thanks.
 
you can half way bleed it by just removing the master cylinder cap and squeezing the lever a bunch of times
