[DML] Re: Brakes

["Kramer" <jettaman95@xxxxxxxxx>]

   How much do you know about repairing your car? Is the pedal solid 
then drop to the floor with pressure? If so, then you need a new 
brake master cylinder. The seals in the inside are leaking. Then you 
will have to bleed the system. (Don't forget to bench bleed the 
master cylinder.) You also should check the lines for leaks, if the 
rubber is dry, cracked, or swollen. Also you should check the fluid 
itself. If there is material inside the plastic tank, then the rubber 
parts need to be replaced. Hope that this helps.
   Sincerly,

Note: The master cylinder is the same one found in a 1976 Saab 900. I 
think. It's exactly the same and I bought mine in my local parts 
store.
