you know it might have....I was on the inside of the car doing the pedal work....
I am having some springs and other items installed at a shop that specializes in brakes as well. I will let him know that it might have run dry and see if they can fix it.

How do you bench bleed the MC?

I have bled them twice myself and once at the Riverside Infiniti (which costs me 140.00)

Did not change the pedal at all. I have put almost two 750 ml bottles of ATE super blue into the system.

I do agree with you and think there is air somewhere..the trick is how to get it out.

Thanks for the input.
