Normally for a fluid flush & bleed, I'll dump a full quart of fresh brake fluid into the power bleeder tank, and it will take almost all of it to get to the point of zero bubbles and a solid pedal.

So I just went out and did this - spent an entire hour on the right rear. I have to have flushed the fluid in that particular line 3 times through now. However, I am periodically getting streams of small bubbles, which is a change. I don't think I'm sucking in air anywhere. Using a pressure system I'd think I'd generate a leak before drawing air into the system. I just find it hard to believe I've run so much fluid through one line and haven't gotten all the air out. And yet, despite all those bubbles, the pedal feel is the same. What is going on? I've never had this much trouble bleeding brakes before!
