How do I bleed this stupid master cylinder @#$#$#@!!??
Been working at this for about 4 hours now and I'm getting absolutely nowhere. I used the partner pumping the brake method, and the pressure bleeder method. The pedal goes right to the floor still, and I'm getting perfectly clear no bubbles brake fluid coming out of all four brakes. What's the secret!!!

are the brake caliper bleed nipples on the top or bottom? I ask because I replaced mine, and then had the same symptoms, but I had installed my calipers onto the wrong side, causing the nipple to be on the bottom, trapping air on top. Switched them, and fixed it.
