Got to the front, can't get anything, crack open the bleeder and the pedal doesn't move, no fluid flow, my head spinning. I saw that the starter of this thread managed to get theirs to work, I am desperate for help!
There is a divider wall between the front and back inside of the master brake fluid tank. Sometimes people don't put enough brake fluid in to fill both chambers inside of brake fluid tank.

Remove the bleeder screw and see if the passage inside of the screw is plugged with rust or dirt.
