please help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hi there i cannot seem to fix my brake problem. my 86 244 i cannot bleed the brakes , well i think all the air is out . but cant get pedal up. i took parts from my 87 245 =the brake booster and master cylinder that were working and put them in my 86 244. and the check valve. now when i press on the brake pedal fluid in the resivior is shooting up towards the top of the resivior and splashing all around that is in the rear section. i followed all the sequences in the haynes and in the archives and read all about this. been messing with this for a week on and off. sometimes i have to walk away. also the left rear brake valve would hardly pass any fluid so i removed it and cleaned it with brake cleaner and it is flowing now. it has been in my driveway and there is no leaks anywhere. i have a brand new ate master cylinder from fcp groten just in case but i havent installed it yet.because the parts worked in the wagon. i would take it so my mechanic but woops no brakes! p.s. about to start throwing wrenches and s@%$. thank you for any input.
