Question type: Maintenance & Repair

1999 honda accord v6 coupe. Replaced the metal
high pressure fuel line, when doing so I broke
both rear brake lines trying to pry off the
protective cage that covered all the rear brake
and fuel lines. I replaced the broken brake lines
and have bleed the brakes multiple times at each
caliper.. What am I doing wrong or what am I just
not doing? Tia

You are not doing anything wrong have seen this happen many time,s you may need to replace your brake master cylinder when fluid went out of it,it is what i call seized,many the plunger has flipped and can not draw suction,replace with a new one and bleed system again,that will fix you,good luck HTH.
