If it is still an air bubble issue, this may help? When bleeding my slave I had issues. After research, I decided to reverse bleed, air bubbles rising made sense. I also liked the syringe technique found on motorcycle blogs, worked very well for me. First time, lots of air release, firm pedal, done. Then when I upgraded to Wilwoods recently, I used the same technique on both front and back, just as effectively.

Given my three masters in the footbox, and the fact I wasn't having luck with push and pull pressure methods, the syringe reverse bleed became my one person method, it's so simple and effective on mine. A 10 cc syringe is easy to reach in with one hand to the masters and lift the plunger with thumb to remove fluid. Then used a 30 cc syringe to add fluid from the bleeder using short tubing from Lowe's and adapters from my pressure/vac kit. Very controllable and good in tighter spaces. Brent
