Did you bench bleed the master cylinder before you installed it? It sounds like you have hydro locked the cylinder.

gammax

Something's goofy with the new part or the install.

Not sure if this will help or not. I had the same problem with an 05 Chevy pick-up. Finally found something online that basically said to drive down the road and slam on the brakes a few times. After that they bled fine. Had something to do with the ABS system. Might give it a try if you can't find any other remedies.

I tried that earlier today, with bearly any brakes. IE really spongy brakes. No dice.

I found that If I used my DIY pressure bleeder at the wheel cyl. I get a much frimer peddle. I will try activating the ABS again tomorrow. and will report back my findings. As much as I hate to say it, I am going to have to most likely take it in to the shop.

Is the bleed fitting plugged? Are you getting anything out of them?

Are you bleeding the ABS module as well?
