adjustable prop valve issue HELP!

I installed am ssbc adjustable prop valve. I bench bled the master twice. I am positive I have no leaks anywhere. I even replaced the link e going from the ssbc prop valve back to the rear. I cracked the rear bleeders open on the rear and I can't get any fluid to drip out. I 2 man bled it a few times and I am getting minimal air/fluid to co e out the bleeder. I tried leaving the adjustable **** in the middle....full pressure.....and full decrease pressure. What am I doing wrong?

Inspect to make sure you don't have any kinks in the line. If you don't, I would start by checking fluid pressure everywhere.

Install a brake pressure gauge in the rear brake outlet of the master cylinder. Do you get good pressure? If yes, move on, if no, you have found your problem.

Install gauge in rear caliper bleeder.
