Re: Brake Problem.

Have you checked your fluid? It sounds like its lacking fluid... If not then I would check your calipers. They could be sticking.

Re: Brake Problem.

I think if it lacked fluid or wasn't bled properly then it would feel spongy (air being compressed). Check to make sure the vacuum line is still connected to the brake master cylinder.
