UrbanCowboy and Fakesnakes,
That is interesting. I wouldn't have thought that having the valve would have that much of an affect on bleeding brakes. I will try to bleed the brakes again with the **** turned all the way clockwise then. That may have to wait a day or two though.
I just looked at the **** again and it says increase clockwise and decrease counterclockwise. However, it doesn't say increase or decrease what. I don't know if increase means increase its bias or increase the fluid thats allowed through it.

have to eat my own words here. I checked on about 5 different articles with 5 different proportioning valves (wilwood ,etc) and they all allow full pressure when turned clockwise (like Urban and fake say) .... weird ...
