why did you blead the brakes? Were any of the calipers removed? The master removed? That would be the only reason to bleed them... Just replaing pads doesnt necessitate the whole bleed process.

Was it a soft pedal when you got it? You could have a cut line somewhere from when they stripped the buggy, or something to that effect...

Good luck!!

racemybuick the reason I bleed the brakes is that the master cyl was completely empty there is no air in the lines I went through a big bottle of DOT 3 just to be on the safe side and still I have no brakes. fluid comes out all of the calipers when I open the bleeder's but not under pressure.

Your brake lines inside might of swelled up, due to
somebody not useing the correct fluid, and when just
pouring fluid in, it will make it to the calipers, but
under pressure of the brake pedal, the insides of the
lines are soft and swollen, this may not be your
problem, but I have had this happen to me before, had
to buy all new, because all the rubber brake components
were exposed to the wrong fluid.

Take the pads off the caliper.
Pump the brake pedal.
Does the cylinder move?
If so, how much?
Not at all?
Is it frozen?
Check out the caliper and make sure it works first.

He can't get fluid to come out the bleeder, pumping
the brake pedal, whats that got to do with calipers
being froze?
