That's my guess. The late TR3 design with the separate reservoir does make
it a bit more difficult to prime the MC.

One way is to pour it full as you assemble it, but I usually bleed it on the
car instead. Most times, just loosening the outlet connection and using it
like a bleed valve will work (loosen the nut, depress the pedal, tighten the
nut, release the pedal). In stubborn cases, I have been known to apply air
pressure with lung power (but I don't recommend this method).
