Brake pedal to the floor

[4Reak Show]

With brake pedal held down, crack one hard line connection loose at the master.

Retighten connection, and then release brake pedal.

Repeat that step for each connection a few times until only fluid spits out when the connections are cracked. That's equivalent to a bench bleed.

Then proceed to the corners.

Good luck

Buy a pressure bleeder. Then it's all a 1 person job.

Use a rag to catch fluid if you crack a master cyl line. The fluid is nasty on paint etc.

In case anyone is wondering, after changing master cylinder, front pads, rotors, back brakes, and wheel cylinders, the problem was still there. The power booster was the problem. Those other things needed to be changed but now I've got to purchase the power booster. Fun Fun. I want to thank everyone who chimed in with suggestions. I've learned some stuff so I guess that is all that matters.

Please report back when you get the power booster in and working! I have also seen the abs pump cause this issue.

Its been a bit but Finally happy to report I swapped the power booster and that was the problem. So to recap, I changed front pads, rotors, master cylinder, back drums, wheel cylinders, flushed the old fluid, bled the new fluid, and bed in new brakes. Seems to be working now. I must say changing the power booster was not hard but more of a pain in the ass. I ended up removing the front seat so I could fit my fat ass under the dash.

I appreciate everyone who commented with advice. This community is a great resource.
