I did what some of you suggested. I opened up both front bleeders and mashed the **** out of the pedal a bunch. I’m guessing the shuttle centered up because I got pressure out back. Finished bleeding everything and now it’s good to go. I had no idea about the proportioning valve, damn these older vehicles...
