its common for old master cyclinders to retire when bleeding brakes. Especially if you have depressed the brake pedal all the way down past the point that the brakes normally operate.

you should only use short strokes of the brake pedal to build up the pressure

i found out the hard way!

this is wierd.
It worked completely as expected on my wagon with completely standard system. Factory drums all round, then ran kb110 brakes/struts and didnt change anything, then the s13 brakes onto kb110 struts with s13 flexi hoses/rotors/calipers. Bled the brakes, worked perfectly. Has twin reservoirs from factory etc.

would be interesting to know what the actual problem is...

Are you sure the calipers are on the proper sides? The bleeder should be at the top. Seen many people overlook that.

But if you cant afford it, or something, it might be an internal seal in the master cylinder allowing fluid to bypass it. Oh and what condition are your flexible lines in? If they are old and ####ty they can bulge and therefore relieve fluid pressure causing bad feel.
