Have been suffering from soft pedal since a full brake system re-do over
the summer.  Replaced servo, master calipers.  Rears were good.

Am trying to bleed now, and am getting no pedal with the vaccum at the
servo discharged, and am getting a steady stream of bubbles from the
driver side bleeder.  No air came out of any of the others.

Have wrapped bleed screw with teflon to try to eliminate air from
getting in around the threads.

Pedal gets firm when engine is running.

I don't have a bleeder system/mitevac/pressurization thing.

Any suggestions?
