Driver side cylinder was tough to open, then leaked after bleeding. Going to take drum off tomorrow and probably replace the wheel cylinder to stop leaking.
Still wondering why the pedal didn't hardly go down when I opened the rear bleeders???
Thanks

At the proportioning valve, Crack open the brake line that goes to the rear while the brake pedal is pressed, If the pedal now goes down like its suppose to...Replace the rear rubber flex hose.

Still the same? Crack the line at the Master Cylinder...If it now goes down....The proportioning valve not centered/stuck/rusted.

Still the same? Bad master, Master not bled, Air in the lines.
