Scarlet runs again! But she won't stop??



OK, this sucks.  
       Four new calipers on the car.  Master cylinder replaced one year ago.  
Put on last new caliper today and bleed it.  Drove and pedal went to the 
floor.  OK, fine, air bubble.  Jacked up car, removed all 4 tires and bleed 
brakes again.  I started with the furthest from the cylinder-passRear- and 
worked my way to the closest, just like your supposed to.  With the engine 
running the pedal goes right to the floor and returns kinda slowly.  
       Oh and the fuel hose to the fuel filter sprung a leak, so it was good 
timing in that sense.  
       I'm going to bleed the brakes again-as that is all I know to do-am I 
overlooking something?  There was no fluid loss, and no leaks anywhere.

PS.  Thanks for all the help folks, I really need to get her going this week 
or I won't be able to work on her again until June.  It's Spring Break.
