man im pissed. spent all of memorial day weekend (and a good amount of $) and i cant drive my car because the pedal goes to the floor. i replaced pads all around, got in new stainless braided lines, but i couldnt seem to get out all the air judging by the pedal feel when i went to test drive it. whats weird is i went through the bleeding method several times and tried to do it all accoding to the pelican parts article linked below. before i went to set the venting clearance the last time before i put on the wheels and tried testing the brake system the pedal felt fine, in fact it felt good.

so the way i went about it, i made my own pressure bleeder with a pressure gauge and kept that at 15-20 psi the whole time and stomped the pedal to hopefully open the proportioning valve and the went about bleeding each caliper bottom to top till i saw no bubbes and i saw nothing but new blue fluid. after that i adjusted my rear venting clearances to .008 and got her back on wheels to try it out only to find the pedal went right to the floor on the first pedal stroke. what am i doing wrong!!?? Are you supposed to open and close the bleeder valve before the downward pedal stroke is even finished? i feel like this should have been pretty straightforward, but like everything else on the brakes i tried to do this weekend (get new pads in, remove old brake lines), it wasnt. at this point im too broke, tired and dirty to attempt it again today.
