| Did you gravity bleed them or pressure bleed them? I have found that a lot of systems need to be bled through the bleeder under pressure to get all the air out, just make sure you don't run the master cylinder dry. | |

| You say the pads move a little but won't hold, it still sounds like an air issue. I had a motorcycle once that needed to be bled from the caliper to the master before they would work. The pads should pump out to the rotor and stay. They don't move much to apply brake. The caliper piston should not suck in all the way when released. | |

| There's no pressure on the master cylinder, you press it in and the pad move less than a s1/16 of and inch and you let it out and It goes back, should I try and reverse bleed the line??? | |

| If you have access to a presure bleeder I would try it. Did you bleed the master before hooking it up? If not try bleeding the master first, then hook it all up and then bleed the system normally. When bleeding the master you should feel some resistance when it is bled of air. | |
