Went to bleed the brakes on the monte the other day and had a problem. Bleed the rear passenger brake fine and went to the rear drivers side. I cracked the bleeder screw open and no fluid comes out even after 10+ pumps of the pedal. So i disconnected the brake line running from the drum that goes to the lil distributino block on the rear end and fluid was coming out. Could the wheel cylinder be bad? I already checked the bleeder screw and it's not clogged...

It is possible that the wheel cylinder could be sucking air through the seals. usually when one wheel cylinder is gone it's best to do both.

X2 on replacing both wheel cylinder`s at the same time. Brake and exhaust work always leads to more work ](*,)
