Re reading my post and thinking back, there was not much more. I used the plastic bit dangling off the bleed hose to secure the tube on really tight to be able to force the liquid through. I removed the lever and all the hose from the bars so that I could move it around freely. Not sure exactly what sorted it though.
I would also try and (carefully) put the freestroke and reach adjustment in a neutral position. I read somewhere that in certain positions it can cut off or limit the flow within the lever.
I’ll try to elaborate tomorrow, but essentially yes. And it has been fine since.
