Problems with my brakes

[Josue666]

So I have a 93 eg. Recently replaced my master cylinder and both rear breaks (drums) even after getting all the air out of the whole system the breaks are soft and fall to the ground with no pressure this no breaks are working. Any clues?

How did you break your drums? And how is a break soft? Oh... you must've meant BRAKES.

Either you didnt tighten something correctly and incurred a leak or you didnt fully bleed the brake system. Bleed them again at each wheel.

I was thinking about getting a vacuum bleeder. Just bleed everything

Its a great option if you can afford it. Also consider flushing out the entire system and adding all new brake fluid. If you mixed new fluid with old brownish looking fluid then that may also be the issue.

Replace those rear cylinders while you're at it too. But I agree with HeX, re-bleed and double check fittings. Don't forget to add fluid to the master cylinder too. If it gets too low you gotta start all over agian.

Corrected.

Adjust rear drum brakes to spec, bench bleed master cylinder, install master and bleed brakes.
