Going straight into the questions 🤦 sorry
Bit of history, it spent the last 22 years in a car park in spain, locked with no keys we rescued it in 2019
I fired it up on a can of fuel as the tank was full of varnish, excuse the millennial using his 4k (believe it or not) phone

I have a 1986 635csi with abs with an accumulator the front brakes have bled up fine but I can't get the rears to bleed at all, Ive picked up the speed in drive to trick it into an abs event ,that didn't work🤷, I've left the ignition on and pushed the brake (Ford abs trick) that never worked.
I've vacuum bled (snapon sucky sucky) nope that never worked.
Guys I'm a running outta ideas and I'm here for some help "HEEELLLPPPP"
please

Change the flexible lines, those things are clogged or have an internal tear that is causing your problem.

Probably a good idea to rebuild the calipers too, you should be to find a caliper rebuild kit with new boots and seals. Bleeder screws can become clogged so when you pop the piston out of the caliper you can make sure the bleeder screws are clear. Check the pistons for corrosion as well.
Thanks buddy, hoses are new 👍

Thanks again , calipers rebuilt, can't get any fluid from the abs pump to the rear front no issue 👍 thought an accumulator, but if I pump the pedal the pas fluid rises , start the engine and it drops so I suspect it's working?

Did you try blowing air through the hard lines to make sure they aren't crapped up?

Pressure regulators possibly? The proportioning valve on the E3 and E9 can be an issue as to why no flow to the rear. Pull one and see if you have fluid to it and then also beyond it. There are two I believe.
