In the process of rebuilding my pedal cluster I put in a new master cylinder. Had to get a pedal cluster from a donor car and rebuilt it. Installed new master cylinder and rebuilt pedal cluster. Filled brake fluid resevoir worked brake pedal. No fluid movement out of resevoir and no resistance at pedal. Do I need to force the fluid into the system? What am I missing?

First time.

I guess I assumed since everything went back together fine that the push rod was in place inserted in the MC. Is it possible to have everything assembled and the pedal working correctly (no funny noises) and still not have the push rod in the right spot.

Yes - did it twice.

If you want to confirm, pull your pedal board and look - a real PITA.

And to bleed the mc, I crack the tube fittings at the mc and let it drip or push the pedal and let it drip (Yeh, I'm not an environmentalist whacko)
