Default Master Cylinder won't bleed

"Bessie" is sick again!Yesterday, the power booster began sucking air when depressed and my 1990 740 GL wagon was extreemly hard to stop. I changed the power booster, reinstalled the master cylinder, and now the pedal is "super hard" and the master will now bleed. Any suggestions?

Default RE: Master Cylinder won't bleed

You can't bleed the master cylinder itself. You have to bleed the system at the wheel cylinders.
