re: bleeding e30 brakes

Did you try depressing the pedal while drawing vavuum and
bleeding?????

I can't imagine that the rear system would fail or be that
plugged and you wouldn't know it.

He didn't mention whether he was pulling a vacuum or using a
pressure
bleeder at the reservoir. If pulling a vacuum with something like
a
MityVac, that might work on the front, but not on the back on a
car with
ABS. I use a friend and the brake booster for the rear. There is
a device
out their that will work off 30# spare tire pressure.
