So back to the brakes....Going to try Steve's suggestion, along with getting all 4 wheels of the ground so I have good access, and soaking the bleeder screws with Kroil.

The suggestion of a little Teflon dope on the bleeders threads is a good one, as I have to use anti-seize on everything else, so it makes sense.

I looked at the Motive power bleeders, but apparently you need the exact right cap to make them work?
