U are going to replace BOTH hoses aren't you???
if u bleed them right it should squirt out the bleeder... with the pedel pushed down and the bleeder open..
close bleeder and pump the brakes then hold and open the bleeder repete untill no air comes out...

Update, Contaminate, thick, mud like 13 yr old(guess) brake fluid(I think) does not flow well. It was unbelieveable, think your fluid looks ok thru that discolored reservoir? It will fool you and I so, pop the top and if its not clear to the bottom with a finger slide, you are contaminated and unsafe IMHO as information. Good Luck
