I had no luck bleeding the brakes with my vacuum pump. Got a friend to help with the old school push the brake pedal method and they bled out just fine.

For me I would have to put the wife to work on the brake bleed screw while I pump the pedal with a cold beer in hand. Could do that, but my vac pump seems to draw it through pretty good. I am taking my time more this time, opening the screw more gradual and using some grease around the threads of the bleed screw and watching bubbles. Just got done drawing from the driver side rear & now having a beer to prep for Superbowl. May try the passenger rear before kickoff. Also this time noting which caliper fluid is being pulled from in the resivour too.

If this more methodical approach doesn't work, will then just take it in as that just about reaches my skill level.
