Thanks Tom and Werner -
I put some PB  on it so we'll see -

Yeah, some days it's all I can do to climb up that 45 % incline to the mailbox -
;-)
Course, it does make for some pretty interesting drives into the driveay when it's wet & we slide and must avoid the closed driveway doors!

Happy New Years -

Larry - you might try the PB Blaster treatment, and then hammer on a proper
size box-end wrench.  I've found that trying an open-end wrench is just
asking for it to be rounded off.  And I have an offset 10mm just for those
hard to reach and stubborn M-B fasteners!

Howdy -
   I checked my rear caliper on the 91 300D (W124) and noticed the bleed
screw is not in very good condition.  I cannot get a wrench on it as the
flats are too damaged.  Vise Grips only damaged the screw further.  I
suspect I'll probably remove the caliper to do this as access is limited
with it in place.

   Any suggestions for removing it without leaving half of it in the
caliper?   I suspect I may have to spring for some reverse drill bits - I
believe Eastwood sells them --

Happy New Year --
