      With a totally dry system, it will take you a little while to get all the fluid through the system. I know it took me a long time to get the GTO bled. I went around the whole car 4 times before the pedal started to firm up. Start at the furthest wheel and work towards the closest.

      I haven't tried this yet but I saw Tom (chicane) bleed my system using gravity - the master must be bench bled. Open the furthest until you see fluid start to drip - do not press the pedal – lightly tap on the calipers and the master cylinder to dislodge any bubbles and make sure the fluid level is topped off at all times. Wait until there is a consistent light "flow" and close. Go to the next and so on. I think the details are close. Maybe Tom will chime in.
