Did you blow the lines out with compressed air to make sure they were free? If its all back together now I'd undo the rear wheel cylinder pipes and put a bit of plastic or rubber tube on them directing into a contained on the ground. Undo at the master cylinder and blow some air down them to make sure the pipes aren't blocked up.
Try the same with the calipers but where the hose joins to the solid pipe. You might need some pipe ring spanners to undo the nuts.
Just try a bit of light air pressure on the fronts so you don't blow fluid everywhere, put a rag over the end of the pipe to catch anything and wipe it off any paint if it gets on it.
If it isn't blocked lines then not sure what is going on. Did you rebuild the calipers? |

I think he was getting a rebuilt WB master cylinder so may not be the valve. |
