This is driving me nuts .. I am trying to bleed my brakes after having the lines off . I can't get nay fluid to come thru the rear wheel cyl.s . I now know I have fluid as far back as the junction of the hard line to the rubber hose thats bolts to the top of the diff. and splits to each wheel . I removed the lines to the cyl.s and the bleeder nuts & I bought a MityVac today.
Tryed the Vac on the bleeders and the holes for the lines . Not even air will pull thru . Whats up here ? Do i need to disassemble the rear brakes and remove the Cyl.s and inspect them or what ??
Thanks in advance
Andy

Thanks .. Seems the inner rubber plungers were pushed all the way in , there wasnt as much B fluid in there as I though and the seals froze to the inside of the cyliners .. The hose on the Diff is fine , I think it was colapsing under Vacumn and had dirt also.
Man , I thought i cleaned all that stuff.
Installed speed bleeders all around too ..
