craig start at the fitting furthest away from the master cylinder go until you start feeling something at the lever then move to the other side then bleed all the anti dive fittings if you can't get anything coming try pumping up the master then cracking the banjo bolts in order from furthest caliper all the way up to the master in order. this should get rid of most of your air and bad old fluid. make sure you pump up every time and don't let go of the lever until you get the fitting that your working on tightened back up or you will allow air back into the system which kind of defeats the purpose of all your work.
+1 ...and dont smash/pull the lever too quickly, as this can turn large easy to get rid of bubbles into millions of tiny bubbles that start to travel everywhere. Best to take it slow, like normal easy traffic stopping.
Good luck.
