Re: brakes bleeds down

Is the power assist vacuum or hydro-boost? If it is vacuum assisted, a bad pump will give a harder than normal pedal. If it is hydro-boost, check fluid level. When you replaced the master cylinder, did you replace it with the same size bore in the master cylinder? I have replaced m/c and found out the bore was smaller and caused bleed off.
