Thanks - I found out that I would leave the cap off.

Here's one I bet you'll know easy....Do you bleed one wheel several times before moving on to the other wheels? OR, do you bleed one wheel once and then keep going around the car?

 

Thanks for your help - I did my rear brakes with no problem. Considering I haven't a clue about anything mechanical...I'd say this must be an easy thing to do. I lubed the 'sliders,' the caliper pins, and the back of the pads. Now I just need to find a torque wrench to adjust the lug torque...does everyone use one?

I also painted the calipers and 'hub' while I was there. No more rusty mess.





I was thinking about a silver decal on the caliper - what do you think? Too busy with the wheel decals?

 

You do not need to put the cap back on when bleeding. Just make sure that you keep the the reservoir between the min and max marks. If it goes dry your sucking air into the system.
