for you brake bleeder folks
put in new metelli master cylinder
all new brake hoses
rebuilt both rear calipers, fronts are recent
bench bled the master poorly, didn't have right technique
bench bled it again after installed in the car
got only a few blobs of air in the first several rounds of plungeing the cylinder
then zero more air
still with the mushy deep diving pedal
84 300TD
anybody know what I'm doing wrong??

yes, repeatedly
then bled master in vehicle, maybe 40 to 50 strokes,
first the two front wheels only with the one line feeding rears screwed in,
then the one feeder to rears bled solo with front feeders screwed in as in running condition, got significant intermittent air into the reservoir from fronts but the feeder to the rear produced no air
feels a little better but still deep plunge before it begins to feel firm
in all cases bled the lines to the calipers after MS bleedings
