Default Brake Problem

I have a 96 accord lx no abs. Brakes engauge very low. Checked for leaks n0 external leaks found. fluid level is good. I replaced the brake M.C. bench bled. And bled and bled the brake system. rr lr rf lf. But the brakes are still engauging very low. im positive there is no air comming out of the bleeders. I have a clear tube in a clear bottle submurged in b.f. with no bubbles. I went through 2 big bottles of b.f. I have also cracked the two output lines from the m.c. to further bleed the system.with no luck can air get traped in the distributing valve? has anyone seen this?

Aftermarket M.C.?
You might need to adjust the push rod under the dash. Don't adjust it too long or the brakes will drag all the time.
Try about 1/2 turn at a time, then test drive.

I'm having almost this exact problem. There is almost no pressure when I engadge the brake(while the car is on). We bled the brakes for nearly an hour and went through tons of bf. Do your brakes work at all? I have been having to use my E brake lately.
