replaced prop valve spring - now no brakes
I replaced the spring, bled the rear brakes and now the brake light on the dash is on and i have no rear brakes. did I miss something in this process?

I bled all the brakes when I did mine, front and rear. I would guess there is air in the system.

Re: replaced prop valve spring - now no brakes
when i was playing with the prop valve spring, i would take the rear wheels off and squeeze the calipers to push fluid back thru the system to the master cylinder.. this pushed the air out of the lines and into the reservoir and i never had to bleed it..
