I tried pressure bleeding, suction bleeding, gravity bleeding and could
not get a decent pedal after replacing the master and slave in the
200TQA.  The only thing that worked for me was "backward" bleeding.  
I bought an oil squirter can (those pump types available at any FLAPS),
filled it with brake fluid, put a tube over the spigot on the oil can and
the slave bleeder fitting, quickly pumped about 3/4 of the fluid through
the system.  Removed the tube and let it gravity bleed a little (just in
case there was any air...there wasn't) and bingo, excellent pedal.
