Default Brake bleeding?

I have air in my brake line right now, only a tiny little parts of it have air. I can drive around town for the whole day and the break would be fine but everytime i back up and went to brake, it would goes to the floor and if i pump it 2-3 times, pressure is back to normal.

I try and bleed the clutch about 3/4 of the small bottle of the brake fluid and thought i fixed the problem but it still there. How would i know when i got rid of that air? I only bled one the driver side of the caliper. Do i need to do all four?

It would be wise to bleed all four, start from the caliper farthest away from the Master Cylinder and work your way around, make sure you keep the M/C full of fluid or youll be doing it again. Remember that Brake fluid attracts moisture so be wary of how long you keep the fluid exposed to air.
