[Peugeot-L] 84 505 STI brake bleeding

        I just changed the proportioning valve on my 505 and, using a Mighty-vac to bleed the rears, got what it seems a very restricted flow of brake fluid for all the pumping that I did. The seal was good and I got good suction, but, even with the bleeder open relatively fully, I got little fluid.

        I am not sure if this is a job for a urologist or not. Then again, as is the case in most Peugeot repairs, is there some Peugeot decreed procedure (bleed brakes with vehicle hung from ceiling, remove engine and transmission before bleeding brakes, etc.) that I should perform so that the rears can give up some more fluid?
