update II 200 1987

Hi All,

Lately, my car didn't smell right when it was running. So I looked around and found that the driver side, top inner valve started to leak. The cap was dangling but it didn't fall out. The fluid leaked very tiny amount but I guess that was the smell. I cleaned with brake cleaner. The valve bolt wasn't loosen like the other side, gave another 10 degree turn. Let's see how this works out.

From the start, maybe I didn't tight enough when I flushed the brake fluid. Or do they back off because constant brake slamming on BQE & LIE?
