Hello, new lines , new prop and meter valve, drum to dis conversion,,, we put fluid in new system for first time. We got good front brakes, but no rear. Had fluid to prop valve, but nothing to exit port for rear. We took it off and found that we could not even blow air threw with my small brake bleeder. Could the prop unit be defective,, anybody run into this before. Thanks in advance

What is the source of your rear valve that won't pass fluid ? I had the same issue with one of the aftermarket valves that was a repop of the original... replaced it with a wilwood adjustable.

Might be the pin is off in the PP valve.Ive had a buch that did the same thing at work.Try tapping on the valve.Ive also had a few reset by opening the frt bleeder and pushing the pedal real hard.Sometimes it takes a few stabs to reset them.Rocky
