When you bleed your brakes that button must be pressed in during bleeding
operation and released when finished.

That proportioning valve looks
exactly like the one I took out for the 4 wheel drum and does not have
any
button but the new one which mounts just below and to the right of the
resivior
is longer and has a button on the front. I will take a pic and send it .
thanks,

Does the prop valve look like this one:
href="http://www.inlinetube.com/images/Prop%20Valves/pr106.jpg";>http://www.inlinetube.com/images/Prop%20Valves/pr106.jpg
that is the button on the left. My GM service
manual (for 72) says that button needs to be pushed in when bleeding
rear
brakes. They have an explaination, but honestly its been so long
that I can't remember the details. Something to do with the auto
shut off of fluid (safety feature) if you get a leak at either the
front
or rear I think.

Did you bench bleed the
master cylinder first? Does your proportioning valve have a button
on the
front? If so depress that first.

I had the same problem when I did my '71. It ended up that there was a
build-up of rust behind the bleed valves on the rear drums. I was able to use a
small wire to break the rust loose and bleed them as they should. Good luck.

on my 71 elky the gen light glows when i first start it. as soon as i get
on the road it goes out and does not come back on even at stops or with
the
lights on, what might be my problem?
it still has the external regulator.

i love the sound of the exhaust when it dumps before the rear end, but it
kind of makes a black sooty mess underneath, is this corrosive at all?
and what
is the best way or kind of solution to wash it off??
