1992 cavalier brake problems

[timothy47129]

I had a wheel cylinder leaking so replace both my rear wheel cylinders,brake shoes and bleed them.My brakes still didn't work untill the pedel was 2inches from the floor.So I replaced my front brake pads and bleed all four brakes.My brakes stop good but I still have ecessive pedel travel(2"from the floor).So how do I tell if it is the power booster,master cylinder or the ABS system?My abs light is not on. Im thinking it is the master cylinder.There isnt a special way to bleed brakes with ABS is there?


thanks,
Tim

if abs or brake light isnt on means u dont have a major problem there

just make sure u bleed them right and no air is in the lines

also check and make sure u refill the reservoir till it says max

and cap is on tight

after all that is done,,if the car stopps right that rule out the booster
and abs

just check beeding and reservoir level
