Hello everyone
Got my front end all back together this weekend.
I believe I got all the air out of the lines during the bleeding process.
But if I very slowly push the pedal it will go to the floor, once I pump it I have a pedal.
Do I still have air, or is this signs of the master cylinder?

thank you
George
 
master cylinder going bad, when you press hard the seals expand, when you press lightly they are letting fluid past, it will just get worse I would replace it
 
air will not normally do that, air in lines normally gives you a mushy or no pedal and then as you pump it, you will get a firmer pedal... then take your foot off for a minute, and no pedal again. This sounds like master cylinder or a leak somewhere.
 
thank you
I was looking for a leak but see no fluid on the ground or any wet connections.
Should I just go to the local part store for the master cylinder? Will it be easy to get?
thank you
George
