164 brakes on a 142s? 140-160

Are you using a pressure bleeder and bleeding in the right order?
Obviously the vented calipers will hold more fluid, being wider, but the
amount of volume change with brake application should be the same.
But those systems are a BEAR to get bled properly.
Also did you remove the brake fault switch before bleeding? Sometimes
that will activate, especially if bleeding by pumping up the pedal and
it isolates half the system, air and all.
