You are about to cost yourself a bit of money, the only thing you need to do is open the bleeder on the front calipers, if it won't work with the power bleeder something is stopped up. Drop back to the old method and hook a hose to the bleeder stick it in a jar with a little brake fluid in it, open the bleeder and slowly pump the pedal till till clear fluid comes out, at that point hold the pedal down and close off the bleeder(takes two people), make sure that you keep fluid in the master cyl..
