It'll be easier to bleed it now since you can get some pressure.

Again, bleed at the banjo bolt first, then at the caliper.

don't use teflon tape...it won't work...the brake fluid will eat it up...how do i know? muahahah...cause i've tried it before.

there is a crap load of bubbles still in there...you just have to be patient and get them all out. like abad said...bleed at the banjo that's connected to the MC first...get those bubbles out and then go for the rest. you still may get more in there cause they'll want to go up...but just hit it again later.

release the bleeder screws slowly...not all fast...this way you can see actual bubbles instead of causing more as it comes out (so it looks like more bubbles). bubbles can also be sucked in from where the mity vac attaches to the bleeder screw...so you would think more bubbles but actually...they from outside.

after you thin you got all the bubbles out...pump that sucker up and that will be the pressure that's maintained in the system. if it gets any softer...you have a leak somewhere...
