Ok, put the footbrake on, all went well, cannot get it bled out and get a pedal, tried gravity bleeding, the old method of pump and bleed and even tried to push fluid from the rear caliper up the the rezzy, nothing, not one bit of pedal, I don't have a vacuum bleeder either...Any ideas will be greatly appreciated

try a small hose over the bleeder open bleeder and suck. close bleeder breath .taste like crap but works use a long clear hose so you can see the fluid dont get it in your mouth. this is a poor mans bleeder lol
