Changed out my old calipers for a set i refurbed today, the swap was easy apart from a stubborn brake line bolt.
Put the new ones on, bled the air out, but now the peddle has a lot of travel on it.

Is there still air in the system?

I've double checked for leaks and all good.

Any solutions appreciated.

*Pedal. Peddle is what you do when you have wares to sell.

clamp the load compensator in the loaded position or place the car on its wheels, ensure the load compensator isn't seized.
