    Push the brake pedal down then open the bleeder?

    Bleeders get crudded up and blocked sometimes. Spray some penetrating oil in the hole when it’s closed and let it sit. Then crack the bleeder and depress the brake pedal. Should clear. If not, go buy another set of bleeders and swap ‘em out. Easy as unscrewing the old one and screwing in the new one. A little messy and brake fluid is caustic, so be ready for cleanup on aisle 3 and have some soap and water handy.
