if all else has failed then i,d bet my bartering skills that you have air in the system at the nearside rear brake line,
bleed o/s/f bleed n/s/f bleed o/s/r then n/s/r & see what happens. cheers andy

To try to help diagnose the problem further - Is the pedal spongy or springy?
Does the pedal creep after pressure is applied to the pedal and held? or is it that you just have too much travel? BV.

think i am going to go with flyerncle's idea. i will stick bleed nipples in the master cyl and see if i can get a hard pedal. if its still wrong then i know the master cyl is goosed. if the master cyl is not goosed then i will connect up one part of the system at a time until i find the problem

The other trick is to clamp the flexy hoses (not braided ones !) press the pedal (need's glamorous assistant )when pressurised release hoses one at a time and feel for the pedal dropping indicating air in the line.
If I remember correctly the one nearest to the pedal is rear brakes,put the bleed nipple in that and see what happens. The pedal pushes the front cylinder into the other with fluid and is probably the cause of the problem as it's bypassing. Best of luck.
