Hi Kees, obviously I mistook this for a Healey specific list :)
generalized comments can be misleading to those that look for good
advise from the list. No offense intended.

Kees, this is not a rare occurrence in a BN1, stop and take a
look at the BN1 front wheel cylinder layout. If the brakes are
not de adjusted there is an air pocket in the wheel cylinders
above the height of the bleed screw. The air will be very
difficult to bleed out as it is trapped. I have advised many to
do this and they found an immediate improvement in the bleeding
process and improvement in pedal firmness. <br>

As remarked before, it is generally a good idea to adjust
back your drum brakes and push back the calliper pistons
(using e few small wedges between pads and discs) to
minimise the volume in the brake cylinders and callipers if
the bleed nipples are positioned in such a way that air can
remain trapped in the cylinders or callipers, although this
is a fairly rare occurrence.<br>
