i've had trouble in the past with cylinders not ate. so, that's all i'll do now. bench bleed the master, then bolt it to the booster. jack the rear up a little higher than the front, making the master cyl level. open both the bleeders on the rears and the very top ones on the front. let it drip-gravity and keep the master full. if 1 doesn't drip, close the rest and SLIGHTLY AND SOFTLY push the pedal with your hand. don't go more than halfway to the floor. this should start it flowing. close 'em all and softly push the pedal to build it up. if this doesn't do it and there is no air in the system, the master is defective. good luck, chuck.
