found my linelock failed so i bypassed it

now i can't get the brakes to bleed right. i can't get any pressure.

fluid will come out of the front bleeders but not the rear.

pump for days and no pressure. there is a tiny bit of resistance about halfway through the brake pedal stroke but other than that it just goes to the floor

That is…until I whipped out my Bissell

Did air get into the MC? If so you.ll need to bench bleed.

Is there an adjustable prop valve? You need to turn it to full out to bleed the rears.

Could also be a pinched line, blockage or something else. Is this oem brakes or some sort of 5-lug brake setup?
