Funny thing, I just replaced my front brake hoses (they needed it - swelling
inside) with stainless steel braided hose. I, too, tried the Mityvac on the
front, but had the same problem - just air. Used a vizi-bleed (the one person
bleed tool with the check valve in the end) and worked fine. By the way big
difference in the way the front brakes feel - much firmer and sure. Not sure
if it's all because of the stainless or just new hoses making the difference.
