Yeah, I do still have a broken bleeder screw. However, I'm very skeptical that I could still have air in that system, as it is the outside of the 2 bleeder screws on the lower front caliper and I have spend hours devoted to releasing all possible trapped air. Now, no matter what I do with that caliper--unbolt it, turn it sideways and bang on it with a mallot, push the fluid out by compressing the piston--I only get crystal clear fluid coming out. I cannot see how that could cause this problem, especially since that line, when clamped off, acted the same what which the other 3 front lines did--when clamped, it stiffened the pedal up a bit. the combo of clamping all 4 stiffened the pedal a LOT. If I held down on the pedal and released the clamps one by one, the pedal would drop a little more with each one, until it sank quite low. Again, I really don't see how I could possibly have any more air trapped in that caliper. Plus, all the seals are in-tact and apparently good on all 4 calipers. Well, thanks again,
