Post subject: Problem bleeding brakes on 78 mini moke

I have just replaced the rear brake cylinders & shoes, front pads and caliper pistons on a 78 mini moke with a tandem master cylinder. The problem I now have is actually bleeding the brakes. After a couple of hours with a friend pumping the pedal we cannot get any fluid to come through. Pumping only sicks fluid up to half way of the bleeding pipe and no further.

Has anyone got any tips on bleeding moke brakes?
thanks
eman
