I have to suck the air out of my Master Cylinder to get it to prime. I used a rubber hose to hook to a brake line and used my mouth to put some suction on the hose. I used a lone enought hose so I did not get any hydraulic fluid in my mouth. It onl takes enought suction to get the fluid into the steel line a little and break the air lock in it. Then I opened all the bleeders and just kept pumping the brakes (Makes a mess) till it flushed all the old fluid out of the system took about a quart to do it. After that I closed the bleaders and I had brakes good enought to lock up the tires and skid the M-37 with the 1980 Chevy 1-ton Master Cylinder. Give that a shot it worked for me. Mark H.
