satoys and x-bird:
thank you gentlemen. I have not confirmed that the pistons at a/the caliper(s) are actually moving; I have not removed any of the wheel brake calipers, just disconnected the hoses there. So far, I have been concentrating on the master cylinder. I just went out and loosened the 3 wheel bleed fittings, with the MC filled. I'll check in the morning for any fluid draining at the wheel fittings. If not, I plan to disconnect everything and start again by blowing out all the lines as well as possible; then try to ascertain if the MC pistons are actually moving; it may just be the two plungers/springs that are moving. I hope I can rig up something to avoid accidents and remove the circlips holding in the pistons/plungers to check there for problems.
Thank you again for all your patience and assistance.
