when a go to bleed my rear brakes am not getting anything out them.
The fluid seems to be getting to the unit attached to the rear beam but no wer else.
Iv even tried to bleed them with the wheels on the ground.
Do you think this unit must be replaced or un blocked

get a pressure bleeder from your local tool supplier and use that.
Start from the furthest from the master cylinder and work your way back:y:

My mate got me a one man thing that screws on to the resevoir and connects to the battery.
I usually sit the wheels on blocks but as long as the wee spring is compressed the valve will open
must be blocked thn am gessin
