Re: Still can't stop
if you dont have a vac bleeder, find a small diameter piece of hose that fits tight over the bleeder nipple. get a small cup or a spray paint lid and pour some clean brake fluid in it. pump up your brakes a little bit. put the open end of the hose down into the clean brake fluid in the cup. squeeze the lever and crack the bleeder slightly. the lever will come all the way back to the bar. do not let the lever back out until you tighten the bleeder back up. only do 1 caliper at a time. you can do the same thing with the top bleeder too. remember to check the fluid in the res. after a few squirts so you dont su<k more air.

Re: Still can't stop
Sometimes when I have a really hard time bleading brakes at work, I'll pump brake fluid in through the nipple on the calipers and crack the banjo at the master cyl. Sometimes you dont even need to crack the banjo bolt loose it may just start filling the master cyl up. If you cant get the air out doing that there is probably somthing wrong with the master cyl.
