I think you have a bubble trapped somewhere. Does the pedal harden up
after you pump it a lot?
(If not, then try adjusting the rear brakes)
If so, there IS air in there somewhere. 2 things to do:
1. wrap a rag around each fitting, pressurize system, open the flare nut
a wee bit until you see fluid leak out. Close, wipe off and proceed to
next fitting.
2. "Slow Bleed" by pumping up the system and bracing the pedal *down* (ie,
foot always on it) with a hunk of lumber. Let it sit overnight, check
again in the morning.
#2 is a previous list suggestion. It worked fairly good for me.
