Default brakes will not bleed!

Ok so i just got done deleting the brake booster and only ran my front brakes off of the pedal but now i cant seem to get the brakes to bleed at all. There is absolutely no fluid in these lines everything is brand new. I just cant find the reason why i cant get any fluid from the master into the lines. If anyone has any ideas or ways to help me out itd be very appreciated!


Brake setup (i dont know if this matters but i know it will be asked):
Nitro performance brake booster delete plate
Wilwood master
ks tuned front drag brake setup
hard lines in the bay
stainless lines in wheel well

there are also no leaks in the lines at all!

youve created a blockage somehow, somewhere.

we cant help you troubleshoot your modified system.

see if the MC is pushing fluid out at least.

You probably need to bleed the MC then before anything else

i would maybe disconnect one brake line from the prop/disturbtor at a time and that will rule out if the blockage is at the prop or a line, then prob have to create a vacum system and suck out the clog..

my guess is a paper wrapper/with adhesive gum lol

you will have to bleed your entire system start with your master cylinder then with the rear passenger then rear drivers then passenger and lastly drivers side .if that does not work you will have to bleed every connection to your brake system until you get rid of the vacuum lock. if that doesn't work you will have to go get a hand vacuum pump (brake bleeding kit) that they sell at sears .that should solve the problem

Start with bench bleeding the MC.

I dunno why you aren't just starting with the obvious.
