Brake pedal dropping to the floor...(possible brake booster)please help!!
Ok I've hit a brick wall on something that I thought was very simple. Long story short, my brake pedal won't hold? In other words once I press the brakes, the pedal slowly goes to the floor. I have changed the master cylinder (remanufactured BTW), bled all four corners and still nothing. I see no evidence of leaks so what am I missing?! Help!!
Could it be my brake booster? I can't seem to find much info at all on this one!!

In case anyone reads this, it turned out to be my brake booster. I picked up one off of ebay with a master cylinder for $70.00 and now my problem appears to be solved. This is my 1st time ever having booster problems.

Yes the boosters will go out form time to time internally. The seals I was referring to were the seals between the brake booster and the master cylinder.
At any rate, glad your problem is solved.
