I thought that the bleeder valve was a 12mm bolt on the back of the caliper. but now i think that the bleeder valve is really a smaller bolt on top of the caliper which has a rubber cap over it. Am i right or did what I heard at first right about the 12mm bolt being the bleeder valve.
also people keep saying that i should keep bleeding the brakes until i see no bubbles but how am i supposed to see if their are anymore bubbles in the lines if my lines are black and not transperent?
Should be a 10mm bolt on top with the cover.
And your brake lines are supposed to be transparent for that very purpose, to watch air coming out of the lines.
EDIT: my bad, I meant the line coming from the bleed screw.
