Re: New calipers and now brake problems.

Good your making progress . It sure sounds like you introduced a lot of air in the system when the calipers were off . Easy mistake to make if not paying attention .

Since you made some improvements I would do a 4 corner bleed starting with the farthest point and working closer to the master . Its hard getting all the air out but keep working on it , it will come out . When I do a full flush it usually takes a qrt of fluid or more . Brake fluid gets old as well and does not hurt to change it .

I still say you prop valve is fine. Dash brake light would be on if it was tripped . Just keep working on it .
