Default Escort RS Turbo Brake Problem. HELP WANTED!!

Hi Everyone.

Currently have a Series 2 Escort RS Turbo which was running ABS.

Before i brought it, it had the ABS removed and fitted with all XR3i Brake Lines, Servo & Master Cylinder.

First time i tryed bleeding them was lots of air in the lines but soon got all the air out but pedal was still soft and spongy.

Check all the lines and rear cylinders which then i replaced as were leaky but its still doing the same thing.

Bleed them all spot on how your ment to bleed brakes but still the pedal is soft and spongy

anyone have any ideas?

Much Appreciated.

Hello! Fault can be a master cylinder. One of the middle for sealing is perhaps the wrong way ....
