I worked from rear right, rear left, to front right, then front left. Every time I cracked open the bleeder the fluid would come out as expected, but would stop maybe about 10 seconds in. Pretty sure I either skipped some step or I did something but am not quite sure. I'm guessing part of the problem is that when I did the rears, I only had the rears jacked up with 2 jackstands so I guess the BMC was almost level with the rears? Ionno, maybe someone can chime in.

could be the bleed screws have a bit of a clog in them. Try opening one nipple at a time and step on the brake pedal to force the fluid and clear the clog.
Happens every now and then at work. When im using the brake fluid flusher, sometimes barley a trickle comes through. So i step on the pedal to force fluid through the nipple and clean out the clog
