Rear Caliper Bleeding Problem

Rear Caliper Bleeding Problem
I had a right rear caliper dragging, so I just replaced both rear calipers with Autozone rebuilds. I have a Motive pressure bleeder which pressurizes the resevoir and I bled the driver rear with no problem, only a number of seconds and the bubbles ended. The passenger rear keeps on pushing out small bubbles, I've gone through almost a quart of brake fluid. The only thing I can figure out is that the caliper is bad. Any suggestions would be welcome. I'm only cracking the bleed screw a small amount.

Found part of problem
I finally loosened the banjo bolt and retorqued it and the bubbles stopped.
Apparently there must have been some grit that was preventing a proper seal.
Now the pads are binding slightly when I turn the rear wheels by hand. The rebuilt caliper hardware clip seems to be a lot tighter than the oem clips. I may have to shell out $45 for the oem hardware kit.
