your supposed to start with the furthest side away from the master... try bleeding the right side real good then the driver side...2 thing could have happened... either theres alot of air now in the lines or wen bleeding u pushed to far down on the pedal blowing the seals out... when i bleeed brakes on fords i put a block of wood behind the pedal
