I just got done changing my pads on my 96 civic DX. I accidentaly loosened the bolt on the pssenger side that the brake fluid is attached to and lost a couple ounces of brake fluid and quickly re-attached it.

I pumped the brakes after I was done, 5 minutes, and haven't re-gained brake pressure. I took it around the block and it stops, but it doesn't jerk, which it should. It doesn't feel safe.

Help please....

u probably put an air in your brake lines, bleed it, and try it again, adn if you can't bleed your brakes....or dont know how...you shouldn't be touching your brakes

Thats what I figured, and yes I do know how to bleed brakes, done it to my motorcycle, just not the civic.

Since I only fucked up my passenger front, is that all I need to bleed?? Or should I do both fronts?

Just the one you lost fluid in, but it's good to bleed your entire system when you're change your pads/shoes to keep the fluid from breaking down.

actually....u dont have to bleed your brakes after u change just your pads.....it's a myth....i suggest u bleed your whole system....starting w/ RR...LF...LR...RF
