F#$^ing brake pads!!!

Hrmph, I never open the bleeder screw, just the fluid reservoir.

if you are not careful and you try to compress a pison back in w/o opening the bleeder screw you can damage the master cylinder, not to mention it makes the whole process of pushing the piston back in easier.

That's why I open the fluid reservoir. The extra fluid just pours out of it I hate bleeder screws and the thought of potentially getting air in the system... I avoid touching them at all costs

Did you read what I said? If you have fluid poping out of the resivor then that means it is passing by the MS. Doing that can unlodge the seal and cause you all sorts of trouble. Its pretty easy to pop open the bleeder, screw the caliper back in, insert pad and bleed system. You should be doing that anyway after changing pads.
