I did have one that seemed to let thee pedal go to the ground. It was/is perfect and started behaving normally once the engine started and wheels were on the ground. Don't make work.

I have an extra cap to the brake master that I use with the bleeder. It will even set the correct fluid level. The inlet sticks down to the correct level. All that is necessary is to bleed, then release pressure , then pull the trigger and siphon the extra fluid back out.
How do I bench bleed?

Don't forget to grease the screw and threads on the spring compressor.
