Default New master cyl. still might have prob??

here is what ive been goin thru
https://mustangforums.com/m_2623614/tm.htm

Soi got a 93 MC and 3-2 kit.

Well I say still might have problem cuz i ran out of fluidand still have no pedal pressure. But is it normal for the pedal to not retain any kind pressure. even when the lines might just have a little air>? Also while pumping the brakes /after im done pumping air bubbles up into the resivoir ... normal?? Brake booster going bad would not have anything to do with my problems would it..

Did you bench bleed the master cylinder before you installed it?

I had a friend that bought a brand new master cylinder and it was bad, it may be worth taking it back and getting another one.

Have you tried to use brake fluid to clean all your fittings, to see about leaks, maybe you have a clogged line, has the fluid ever been replaced?
