Bleed your master cylinder first, then you can start on the back brakes. Before you insteal the master cylinder. Bench bleed the master first. All you need to do is take a short hose attach it to the one of the output lines, put back into the cylinder and fill the master cylinder. Take a blunt object and puch on the back of the cylinder sleve. This pre-bleeds the master.
