Make sure this air in the master cylinder did not enter in the system. You need to add oil anyway in the master cylinder after each brake wheel to avoid air enter in this system. Ortherwise, you will need more time and brake oil to extract the air from the brake line.

I’ve never used a pressure bleeder but they get a lot of good reviews, especially the motive bleeder. Most dealerships use a pressure bleeder also from what I have seen. I chose a vacuum bleeder. The mityvac MV6835, http://www.tooltopia.com/mityvac-mv6835.aspx. It basically does the reverse. It has an auto refill bottle that goes on the master and uses shop air to suck new fluid threw the system from each wheel bleeder. It’s quick and easy and works on all vehicles. The pressure bleeders need a cap to fit each vehicle. The mityvac pressure bleeder you show is 280 bucks, the motive is cheaper but you have to buy a cap adapter for each vehicle so the price adds up. The mityvac vacuum bleeder is 140 bucks or so and no adapters needed. I also wasn’t to fond of having brake fluid under pressure.
