Brake fluid

Recently changed both front calipers, now there is very little fluid going to passenger side.

Make sure you put the calipers on the right side... The bleeder plug goes at the TOP....Other than that, you need to bleed the system... passenger side line is LONGER than the drivers side........ make sure the master cyl is FULL, then pump 10 times, hold pedal down while someone cracks the bleeder and pushes the air and some fluid out.. Close valve, then pump up the pedal 10 times again, and hold down... open the bleeder... do this 3-4 times until you have NO AIR coming out and only fluid.. If your not getting any fluid, them maybe your brake HOSE is failing... sometimes the inner layer comes loose and blocks the flow.
