Hi Gary -
Are you pedal bleeding or are you using EZIBLEED? If you are pedal
bleeding it won't work, you need to use Ezibleed to get it right. Also, I
would not use silicone fluid, dot 4 is the best, because over time you will
get a better pedal as the seal swell a bit with old school Dot 3 or 4.
Best,
Alan
