alward25:
Have you tried reverse bleeding the system? You might have in air bubble in the MC that does not want to work out.
Good luck

I had a problem bleeding after disassembly onthe front brake of my '90 K5. Tried several times with no luck so I got a master cyl. rebuild kit and still no luck. Then I removed the master cyl. and mounted it to a spare set of bars clamped to a bike stand and attached the front hose to the rear caliper and instantly got pressure.
Then I mounted the hose back on the front caliper and instantly got pressure...still using bike stand and hose somewhat horzontal.
Mounted the master cyl. back on the bike and done deal.
Wondering if the hose being horizontal heped?
Seemed to help.
Anybody?
