Have 97 Land Cruiser. Replaced the pads front and rear and front rotors. What is the proper bleeding procedure. Pedal is firm with engine off but with it running pedal pumps up but gradually goes all the way down. Have bled manually at each wheel and have clean fluid at each one but must have some air trapped somewhere.

CHECK THE LSPV (LOAD SENSING PROPORTIONING VALVE) JUST IN FRONT OF THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WHEEL. MANY ENTHUSIASTS MISS OUT ON BLEEDING DONT KNOW THAT IT NEEDS TO BE BLED AS WELL AND IS USUALLY THE CAUSE OF AIR IN THE LINE AND SUBSEQUNTLY CAUSES A SOFT OR "MUSHY" PEDAL. A LOT OF PENETRANT AND PATIENCE WILL EVENTUALLY GET THE BLEEDER SCREW LOOSE. GOOD LUCK AND HTH:smokin:

If that doesn't work, I suggest to look int a new brake master cylindder
