What did I do wrong? Brake question 200

You loosened th wrong ones.. Sounds like the ones that hold the two halves of the caliper together.

For future reference...http://home.no.net/ebrox/Brakes.htm


It's good that you are trying to work on your own car. Maybe next time ask first so we can possibly send you pics. OR find a friend that has done them before. You can almost do brakes on any car once you've done them once and understand how mechanically they are supposed to work.
You'll need to bleed them hopefully the entire Master did not drain and yu can just bleed the one side
