Only 2 on the rear might mean just a stuck side seal.
Try soaking the rear rotor in ATF or MMO or whatever your fav is.
1 good and 2 bad / no pulses is indicative of a bad apex seal and guarantee a rebuild.

If it's a stuck side seal, there's a chance you could resurrect the engine without opening it up...
