How are your pads? You may need to bleed the lines also.

You can purchase a one person bleeder kit from parts stores like Autozone. It will make your life much easier. I think they around $20. Well worth the money IMO. It took me around a half hour instead of pumping the lever for hours. Just keep bleeding until you are getting nothing but clean fluid with no air bubbles. Good luck.
