Default Bleeding brakes on 1998 S-10 after rear line break...

Hi,

I am having a brake bleeding problem on an S-10 (1998) 2WD 4.3L. I had the brake line that goes from the Master cylinder to the rear axle blow due to rust. I had no choice but to drive it with only front brakes for a few days and now that the line is replaced we can't get fluid to bleed into the line....I suspected the P-Value but we tried reseting it by opening the front bleed screw and still nothing....

Is there a special procedure for this truck beyond the normal bleed procedure?


Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,

Kevin
