No brake pressure

This is tough because bleeding is relatively simple but has some very particular details sometimes and you're working on an unknown vehicle...!!??!??

More than likely there's still air in the system. 

Take note - everyone was saying bleed the brakes - and you were guessing master cylinder multiple times. 

You reassessed your bleeding and got more air out - so those suggestions were spot on. 

I'm not sure where the line is drawn between "you need to bleed more" and "it's probably something else" - that's a very gray area - but it's often the case more bleeding or proper bleeding or a better bleeding set up (don't run out of fluid in MC, screws not leaking, hose/pump/whatever make shift system is being used working well)....

 

What Garry said!

 

Do the gravity bleeding, one wheel at a time, and you will be fine.  Just make sure you watch the fluid level in the Master Cylinder.

 

Good luck,

Sam
