There is air in the system and/or too much mechanical play somewhere.
Make sure the rear adjusters are working and that the front bearings are
properly adjusted. Bleed and try again.

Subject: Brake Question

I have a curious problem.  I recently changed my front brakes and wheel
bearings.  Bleed all brakes.  Now when I start my day (mostly backing
out of the drive.)  The brakes go to the floor.  I pump the brakes once
or twice then they are somewhat firm.  I did rebleed the brakes.  Master
cylinder was replaced a few years ago.

Any suggestions?
