With a bleeder pointing down, the fluid is going in the hose and staight out the bottom, leaving all the air in the caliper.

If you tried what I suggested, you'd be done already. I'm putting $5 on your feeling like a dumbass when you actually look and realize you put the calipers on the wrong sides.

Anyone ever wonder why people ask for advice and then ignore it? Good thing I burn a lot of calories typing all day to waste my time.
