VStech. No, I was only using the power bleeder to pump air. I usually do it this way, but I never let the reservoir go dry (except for this time)

Glenn,
You should be able to fill the reservoir just by tipping brake fluid into the hole at the top - perhaps you are having trouble seeing the fluid in there? How clean is the exterior of the reservoir?
What sort of pressure bleeder are you using? Are you following the manufacturer's instructions?
With my pressure bleeder it has a separate reservoir that connects to the one in the car - this separate reservoir is the one that has compressed air acting on the top of the fluid...
