I could use a little advice. The brakes have been kinda squishy recently. It stops fine, but it takes more pedal travel to get it done, and the several different people that drive don't like that at all. I assumed I just needed to bleed out the brake lines and cylinders and all would be well. I started at the LF (lot's of air came out), did RF, and then tried driving it, no improvement. Moved to the back, did LR, then RR(no air came out). No improvement. I took atleat 3 or 4 ounces out of each wheel, and the reservoir is still plenty full. My helper said the pedal was much stiffer when bleeding the back than in the front. Did I mess up the order? I couldn't remember if it was closest first or farthest first.

There's no external leaks anywhere. Thanks for any advice, and I've got a couple tractor questions bouncing around upstairs to make up for this question.

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
