new brake lines spongy pedal
You could try taking pushing the Pistons back on eack caliper quickly, that will force the fluid and whatever air is in the line to move fast back up to the Master. You will need to take some fluid out of the Master to do this.
OR are you bleeding the brakes by loosening the Bleeder and putting a tube from the bleeder to a bottle of brake fluid? With the Tube in a bit of brake fluid, it acts as a check valve. Makes bleeding a one person job AND again it lets up pump a bunch of fluid in a short time so the air doesn't have time to move back up to a high spot in the steel lines.
Bleed ;rear passenger then rear drivers then front Passenger then front drivers
Basically furthest away fron teh reservoir to the closest.

i bench bled the mc. it took me over an hour until i could pump it 20 times in a row without bubbles coming out. every thing i heard about the abs is just to keep bleeding the calipers or to crack the lines at the abs unit witch i tried. im gonna look for the abs info you mentioned thanks for helpin
im confused by what you mean shoot up in the res. yes fluid would shoot up if i pressed hard but no air bubbles. and ive seen alot of cars that fluid would shoot up like that and the brakes worked great
