How do the brakes feel?  It sounds like you have air getting in around the
bleeder nipple (you only need to undo it a little, like a quarter of a turn)
or where the hose is attaching to the nipple. <<

The pedal goes all the way to the floor. No pressure whatsoever.  I just
went out and got some twist ties to wrap the hose around the nipple.

I'm going back out to try again.

Thanks,
Bryan
