I am having a problem with my brakes. I own a 1995 Chevy Z-71 and have already replaced the mastercylinder with no fix. When I step on the pedal, it slowly goes to the floor. Please Help!!!

Normally, if you are not losing brake fluid, you likely have a seal problem in the master cylinder. Its seeping past the seal back into the reservior. But, since you have replaced the master cylinder, I think its likely that you have a messed up ABS unit, a massive amount of air in the line close to the master cylinder, or you have a bulging hose.

If you are losing fluid, I'm going with the guys on this one and saying that there is a caliper piston seal broken.

I HAVE SWAPPED THE MASTER CYLINDER ABOUT THREE TIMES AND IT DOES THE SAME THING. tHE ONLY THING THAT I'M NOT SURE OF IS THE ABS BOX UNDER THE HOOD. COULD THAT CAUSE THE PROBLEM? I DON'T MIND THE PRICE BUT I DON'T WANT TO CHANGE IT IF IT WILL NOT FIX MY PROBLEM. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
