Thanks, Dave. I didn't even think of that (need to push against the drum to activate pressure to other side). Thanks also for the advice on the screw adjustment. I know that the screw on the drivers side is all the way in (loose). The passenger side is staying tight, and I haven't got the drum off yet. I was seriously thinking about getting some different colored paints and painting the star wheel cogs so I can tell if I'm actually getting a click each time, or if I'm slipping off the teeth and not getting any reliable turn counts. Also, I used a Mighty Vac to bleed the brakes, but read on one of the older posts that they may suck air into the line (??), and to use the two man method of a person at the pedal and me at the bleeder. Any thoughts on that? Could I have messed up by using the Mighty Vac?
