I replaced the master cylinder in my TR3A and now I can't seem to get the brakes bled. I've been around all 4 wheels a few times but I continue to get bubbles and a soft peddle to a point. The peddle will get hard a few inches from the floor and will pump up somewhat. Is it possible that the new master cylinder is bad? I can't see how air is getting in the system, I know I've pulled several reservoirs worth of fluid through.

Thanks for any ideas,
Bob
