Any value to putting anti seize onto the threads? Or should they just be replaced every so often?
I have two that the rubber caps disintegrated, and I forgot about that--so they seem to be rusted shut now & won't flow. I noticed on a different car that the bleeders are getting harder to turn out (but still work). So I'm wondering if I should remove and "grease" appropriately, or just buy a few new ones and replace as necessary. [I presume that anti seize would be only on the threads and not the sealing surface.]
