Start bleeding from the right rear caliper first, then the left rear followed by the right front and finish with the caliper closest to the MC. I have always had trouble with the self bleeders. I use a long small plastic tube connected to the bleeder and immerse the other end in a jar of brake fluid to see more clearly when the bubbles disappear.
