Mike, check your hoses, they will swell shut and not let the fluid release, been there done that, hope this helps

just about ready to replace the rubber hoses and put in the bias plugs
and do a full bleed if I can ever find the time. And this is after
replacing both calipers with quality parts from NAPA. One of them
twice, by the way.
