I replaced my back brake lines on my 1995 Astro van and now I cant bleed the back brakes when I open the bleed valve no fluid comes out, and yes I have fluid in the booster. The front brakes work fine.A friend told me hydroboosters was very hard to bleed.I don't know if I need to buy a new booster or not Please help! Thanks :-)

This has nothing to do with the hydroboost. You have likely gotten air into the ABS system now and this vehicle requires using a professional scan tool to bleed the system out electronically.
