The rear brakes are not engaging. After we installed the manual brakes, new master cylinder and manual bias, they were never bled at all four wheels.


Do you think it's just a matter of bleeding them or is it something else? Wish I would have known sooner. I could have barrowed the pressure bleeder from work for the weekend.

Not really certain yet, but niether rear brake appears to be grabing. The line is also extremely hot to the touch...exhaust is blowing on the line, but I dont think it is boiling the fluid

When we went to put it in the trailer, I had to turn the adjuster to allow the car to move as the fronts were already on.

I wonder if something is wrong with the bias valve. I'll have to do some reading on how to properly set it.
