Question no rear brakes?

It doesn't seem like my rear brakes are working. Could the proportioning valve be bad (if it even has one, I know most car with disc/drum combos do have one) or maybe the master cylinder or line? I have tried bleeding them and I barely get any fluid out of the rear. Thanks for y'all's help...again.

Did you adjust the rear brakes?

Cool, I did a search on it. I'll see if adjusting it gets it fixed.

If the rear is not bleeding, then an adjustment will not help. What are you using to bleed the brakes? I have not had a lot of luck with the vacuum pump kind. Use either a power bleeder or traditional pedal pumping method. You might have a clog or possibly the master cylinder is filled with air and will have to be bench bled.
