One thing to remember when going though this exercise is to properly adjust
the rear brake shoes (since you mentioned they were replaced). If the shoes
have to move very far before contacting the drum surface the pedal has to go
down a corresponding amount making for a first pump low pedal.

Ok Guys,
I changed the brake fluid on my 100/6 recently (dot 4), and ever since I
have had a poor pedal on first pump, followed by a better one on the second
pump.
I posted a question a few weeks back on the correct sequence for bleeding
(start furthest away from the master cylinder) which I duly followed.
No improvement.
Then I noticed a leak from the back R/H drum.
And found the Wheel cylinder was leaking, and the shoes were contaminated.
So I put a seal kit in both rear wheel cylinders and fitted a new set of
back shoes.
