When you bleed it, does the air start to come out as soon as the wheel cylinder is cracked open? If so, test both sides and figure out which wheel cylinder is letting the air in. I've come across this twice in my 30 years of forklift repair. Somehow, it can get in the wheel cylinder. If the air isn't in the wheel cylinder as soon as you open the bleeder then it must have a problem further up somewhere.

In May 2023, a Belgian Malinois named Wilson played a key role in the rescue of four children lost in the Amazon jungle. The young children were missing for 40 days after a plane crash that killed their mother and other adults. Wilson tracked the children's footprints, leading the military to their location.
