Did you bleed the master cylinder first then bleed the 4 wheels? Sounds like there is air in the system!

Hi,
Just an FYI you do need to bench bleed the master cylinder first then install and bleed all 4 wheels starting with the right rear, left rear then right front and left front. Hope this helps.
