  • Bleed valve screw

    Ok, this has to be without a doubt the dumbest thing I have ever done. I was in the process of flushing my radiator, and dropped the bleed valve screw, and it's nowhere to be found. I found another screw that somewhat fits the opening, and it doesn't appear to be letting any coolant out. Will this hold up until I can get to the dealership (about 15-20 miles), or does anyone have a better suggestion? And no, I don't have a metal detector to find it with! lol

        3.4, that is a pretty good idea. I did that as soon as I realized I couldn't find it by sight. I spent about 20 minutes rubbing the ground with an old speaker. I'm just glad I live out in the middle of nowhere, otherwise everyone who went by and saw me doing it would've gotten one helluva laugh.
