Default But wouldn't that mean the brake pedal would be mushy after I finish bleeding it?

After I bleed it, it is a little better, a little firmer, but gets worse over time. If it suck in air wouldn't it be mushy right afterwards as well? Or does the air it sucks in slowly make its way into the lines and such?

Default I couldn't let you know for sure

All I know is that you need to do it the correct way and then see what your symptoms are. You say you are getting air in the system, I say without a leak, there is no way to get air in the system, so I'm saying it's your method.

That's the first thing you need to do.
