I have never had any issues bleeding the front brakes but I have heard in this case you can pull the lever in and put a rubber band on it and leave it over night. In the morning all is supposed to be good. I never had to do this so just regurgitating what I have read here.

I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!
