Answer
Danny,

You are not alone since it is difficult to get air to flow backwards and down...  You have some options.  Some like to open the bleeder and the cap and just hang out under the cra until the air bubble popps and fluid is allowed to flow.  After fluid starts draining you can bleed the cylinder.  Some like to use a vacuum bleeder to get the air out and some use a pressure bleeder from the master to force the trapped air out.  It takes some time but it will eventually work.  It is rare for a master to be defective when rebuilt.
