silvermate Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 sounds like the master cylinder has left the building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuji Racing Posted January 26, 2005 Author Share Posted January 26, 2005 sounds like the master cylinder has left the building. ← sounds like it to me too...but i still have brakes and one of my trusted local shops said it might be the brake booster gone bad...it still wants to pump the brake every 5 seconds.... turn key off...pump 40 or more times....seen small bubbles in the resevoir...maybe... do you think it may have air in the system...therfore it will not get good pressure for power brakes....

silvermate Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 well if a professional told you differently, i would go with that, hes a pro. i'm no pro by any means, just an enthusiast and avid DIYer but i can only offer you my oppinions yes, you could have air in your system, try bleeding the breaks, if you are seeing bubbles come out after you pumping the breaks, yes there is air in the system. that would def. cause a soft break pedal.
