I was just downstairs in the garage checking the tranny fluid level, when I decided to crack the bleed screw on the thermostat housing to put on a new one. As I was taking out the old screw, it fell somewhere, and now I cant find it anywhere. I now have the new hollow screw that has 3 holes around the top, with the "banjo fitting" screw. I screwed on the hollow screw with the banjo fitting screw, and when I started the engine coolant starting spewing out of the banjo fitting screw. How do these screws work together? How do i properly install this hollow screw with the banjo fitting? I know the old screw was just a normal regular bolt that would just screw in--but i've lost it. If anything, Im headed to the dealer tomorrow morning to get the regular "normal" screw. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Would appreciate it...

If yours had the solid screw, that is what goes back in.
