The hose may be no good. If it was empty there is a reason/ probably a leak somewhere. It's just a simple hydrolic system master cylinders at the sticks and dual piston calipers at the disks, with a hose in-between. After you fill it and bleed it, hold the stick down firm and wait a minute to see if it leaks anywhere. Big culprits night be the ball bearing under the bleeder screw, I have replaced a few due to corrosion that would not fully seal. -
thanks face ....put the steering fluid in and got good pressure , no leaks after tightening connectors . then we noticed on the left side , someone had put one of the brake pads on backwards . metal side was facing the disc ! switched it around and working just fine now . johnboy va.Comment

Good catch with the brake pad! It's always nice when something is a no parts fixComment
