Diagnosis Help Needed!! (Brakes)
2 days ago: Noticed a few weeks before that one of my calipers leaked a little bit, and brake pedal wasn't as firm as it should have been.
Yesterday: Replaced caliper, put my track pads in, bled the brakes. Brake pedal was super-mushy and could reach the floor.
Today: Bled brakes twice (with help to ensure it was done right), pedal is even worse than the day before.
When the car is off and I pump the pedal is does get firm (I think this means my booster is still working?), but when I turn the car on the pedal falls to the floor.
Any ideas?

Yeah. I'm doing a rear disc swap this weekend so I'll just take everything apart and flush the entire system the best I can. I'm thinking there is air in the FR/RL circuit because I've noticed that my FR pad is only rubbing off half of the rotor, the other half is getting the rusty film from not being touched.
I took the MC off the BB today and there looked to be some condensation in the BB, but certainly didn't look like a leak.
If all else fails I'll be taking it to Honda next week to get their machine to do a failproof brake fluid flush
