Re: need help with my brakes

I'm no expert, but first off. Double check to make sure you have plenty of fluid and no leaks anywhere, look everywhere! Really sound like a new Master cylinder may be needed. Do the brakes grab when pushed? If so, do they release when the pedal is pulled up? Maybe binding in the peddle linkage? Thats just my two cents. Others may have other ideas. Hope this helps.
