can't get back brakes to get fluid from master cylinder

[Richard Bayer]

I’m trying to help a friend. 1998 Buick Century sat around for 2 years and the brake lines rusted into hardly nothing. after fixing those and trying to get fluid to all 4 corners, I must say that after a day and a half, only the fronts were willing to corr-operate. Needless to say, my friend is driving around like this until I get help. It seems like the back half of the master Isn’t doing it’s job. No Ive never bench bled a master, Is there a simple solution . maybe someone has heard of this. please help

Is the proportioning valve OK? IF this is blocked or stuck, you may not get fluid to the back.
