Engines never been on during whole process. We got pipes off after finding the massive blow out looked like a flared pipe already. Reran new lines attached airtight, tested as airtight during bleeding, no air from calipers but still no peddle. No pressure at all apart from the 2/3rd travel blip. There is a broken bleed nipple on 1st caliper thought so we took it off, expelled fluid and retested same result. I'm not going to have to plus gas, and hammer the old broken bleed nipple am I? I should still just have a spongy but pressured peddle for the minute amount of air that might be left because of this? I thought the ABS was on the 2ndary circuit so it shouldn't affect the actual pad operation or am I over-simplifying?

Vacuum or not that shouldn't happen I reckon.--
