New big front brakes (240 dl calipers), new tii master, used tii booster.

Bought the motive products pressure bleeder, pumps the fluid itself under pressure into the reservoir.

Clutch seems fine after bleeding.

Brakes, however, do not. I'm wondering if I missed something, like stomping on the pedal a bunch to make sure the master cylinder itself is bled appropriately or something.

Everything seemed airfree and clear when I bled it w/ the powerbleeder.

Any ideas? It seems like I get the rear brakes right at the end of the pedal travel, but I don't seem to get the fronts at all. Could I possibly have hooked up the brakelines incorrectly or somethin? Argh. I'm 99.9% positive I put the lines back where they came from, really don't wanna pull this all apart again.

Corey
