Bled brakes again...still no pedal! 200 1985

I have followed the thread and I do realize that you checked the master and that it was new. If I remember correctly I think you even said that you had firm pedal when you blocked the lines or something like that. I still think the problem may be associated or in that master cylinder.
Is the push rod retracting all the way? This will be apparent by observing a slight turbulance in the reservoir after applying and releasing the pedal? Are you able pump fluid with the pedal into the system during the bleeding process or did you use some other bleeding method? If you are not able to pump fluid into the system as in bleeding that is pretty good indicator that the master is bad.
