Did I miss something?

I changed out my old MC for a new 19mm per the Pelican article, and changed out my soft lines while I was at it. I've bled all 4 corners with a vacuum pump, but the pedal still goes to the floor. I cant get it to pump up at all, even depressing it multiple (~50) times.

Help?

Got fluid in the resivour?

I lost my brake fluid three times in the little tank and was STILL able to get it bled within 50 presses

Sounds like you still have a ton of air in there. Plus did you start from the back and go to the front last?

plus the proprtional valve traps air too.
