New Girling front calipers on a 1995 945. I thought bleeding would be easy w/ a motive pressure bleeder, and rand the brake fluid reservoir dry (twice!).

As one would expect, I have no pedal, and the brake light on the dash comes on.

What is the "proper" way to remove air from the system? I assume the master cylinder is fine (it worked two days ago) and I think there's air somewhere in the front two calipers.

Fluid easily comes out of all 4 calipers via the 1 bleed screw on each caliper.
