Hia,

Don't suppose anyone in south Wales area can lend a hand with my brakes... I have had to replace a caliper. I have checked for air leaks on them. I have tried gravity bleeding, manual bleeding and vacuum bleeding, but cant get any front brakes still.

Checked master cylinder, if I block outlet port, and apply brake, I can feel pressure, and if I remove finger, fluid comes out. I get fluid flowing out of bleeder valves on calipers, bit when I apply lever then, it just goes to the bar.. I don't get it..
 
I had this a few years back on a previous mille. Probably won't be the cause but when you're desperate you'll try owt. I was on hours and then I squeezed the rubber tube from the reservoir and a **** load of bubbles shot up into the fluid and hey presto after a few cycles the system bled through properly.
