It worked so well there must be something wrong.
I changed the rear cylinders and most of the lines going forward.
I opened a rear bleeder and pumped like a mad man. After a long time a few drops came out.
So, I poured a large bottle of DOT3 in a clean bug sprayer, cut the sprayer off and forced the plastic hose onto the bleeder.
I pumped it up opened the opposite bleeder. Brake fluid gushed forth.
I tightened the bleeder and headed to the front where i found brake fluid pouring over the top of the MC. (top seal is worn)
That was too easy.
The pedal is hard. Battery is charging. I was not expecting to drive it tonight.
The end is in sight thanks for all the help along the way.

It's gonna take a lot of Adderall to get this thing right.
