Brakes needs help

[Lespaul20]

I have a 90 ktm 250. I had a problem with the front brake pads and when I took of the caliper the oil drained out. So after a bizzilion hours of pumping I finnally got the MC primed. Now when i pull the lever I can pull all the way. I can pump it up but i still can pull it all the way. I bleed them both ways. I pretty sure it hold pressure. So could it be air trapped in the cylinder. Help is really needed. Thanks.

you can try bleeding from the botttom up using a syringe or a squesy bottle. make sure you have a rag ready when the fluid comes out the mastercyclinder though!

Yes like Bruce said, make sure that you cover anything of cosmetic value from the brake fluid! It will stain plastic and paint badly. (I learned the hard way, my front fender was never the same again.)
