Just an update: I re-bled the front reservoir of the master cylinder and more air came out. I then bled the bleeder on the m/c. I had a helper pump the pedal and began bleeding the calipers. When I heard air coming out I hooked up the vacuum bleeder again and lo and behold fluid started flowing out! I did both front wheels with the vacuum and then I re-bled all 4 wheels by pumping the pedal. No air and a stiff pedal! Thanks for your responses!
