Exclamation

What is the "right tool to engage them to finish bleeding"? I have used ISTA-D to do this so far, and I pressurize the system from the reservoir cap to 20 PSI using my Schwaben "compact bleeder"

Anyway - I have bled 3 times now with my pressure bleeder. Very little air is coming out and there is absolutely NO improvement. Pedal is somewhat hard with car off, but with car on pedal is absolute mush.

Say pedal at its rest position is 1, and pedal at the floor is 10,
I have NO BRAKES between position 1 and 8
Position 8.5 I have some braking
9.5 Brakes are locking solid - enough to activate ABS.

Where to next? Really looking forward to getting this fixed. Car IS drivable at this point, but the first 85% of the brake pedal travel doing NOTHING isn't exactly confidence inspiring!
