Your rig seems to be non-stock from your description; each single-piston rear caliper has one (1.0) hydraulic bleeder valve. However, I had problems with one guys car- no fluid flow from one rear bleeder. I removed the bleeder needle and DRILLED out the passages which were solidly clogged with dirt/rust/varnish. Second, these are sliding calipers (as-stock) and if the units aren't sliding under cable pulls, you need to free them up & put a spot of axle grease on the slide paths. Finally, theres a setscrew adjustment in the caliper side behind the moving pad, that sets slide clearance; in rare csaes, this may need adjustment.
