My indie ended up getting 3 with problems that had to be sent back - all of Asian manufacture, mostly they leaked at the bleeder bolt due to sloppy fit & had to be installed, etc. before the problem showed itself.
The 4th appears to be the charm - also had a slightly sloppy bleeder bolt fit, but he addressed this with some super-duper thread sealer and it has not leaked after more than a week - not even a drop.
This snafu was a real time eater - and sadly, during this lengthy period the gearbox on my trust '94 Aero gave out, causing other things to be done while waiting for the '97 Aero to become ready.
Point of advice:
Examine the bleeder bolt fit VERY CAREFULLY - and if its sloppy - like it doesn't look like it seats right, or has a wobble when threaded in - beware as that is what gave away the 3 bad ones.
BTW, they have all been Proparts made.
I hope you got a good one !!
Best Wishes.
