Rear brake adjustment
Hi guys. Trying to adjust rear drum brakes on 93 Civic. Problem is, the sight hole where you normally turn the adjusters on this car is right behind a knuckle or support beam of some sort. Doesn't seem to be sufficient access to get in there and turn the star wheel with the normal tool for that (flat screwdriver), any tips on doing this?
thanks.

Re: Rear brake adjustment (Emery)
adjust the star wheel so the brake shoe close enough, then put your car in reverse, drive it backward slow not fast then step on the brake the auto adjuster will set itself.
