Hello Eric,
I found your name via the internet and since you are in Canton, thought I
would ask a local for advice. Just completed partial restoration (body,
interior - not off frame) of a 76 TR6. Noticed that I had some brake fluid
leakage on the rear passanger wheel so, like a dedicated TR guy, decided to
replace both real wheel brake cylinders, Replaced both, replaced rear shoes
and front pads.
Now the problem. I cannot bleed the air out of the rear wheels. Front seems
OK. Just cannot get the fluid to flow from the rear wheels.
Any suggestions? Need help.
Thanks.
