Brake to floor, no stopping, no slowing, no nothing. In fact there was a sensation of acceleration. Pumping did not help. I bled them again and they improved enough that pumping them had an effect, not I did not see any air come out when I did this. The next step is to bleed them from all four wheels again, and let enough fluid pass through to know that any air in the lines has been exhausted out.
But I am done with it for a day. The rental is until Monday, so I am going to worry about it then. Just set off fireworks, now to go have some.
