Well, a few weeks ago I was driving the car in an area very close to home. When at a stop light I realized that I had almost no brake pressure in the pedal. The pedal just basically fell to the floor. I limped her home and left her sitting in the garage for about 2 weeks. There is nobody in my area that knows anything about these types of cars, especially working on one. I have been trying to get her to Phoenix so Coz can take a look at her, but that just hasn't worked out...yet. Anyway, I decided to start her up a couple of days ago and see what the brake pressure was like. It seemed fine while idling. So, I decided to take her out. Everything went fine. No problems at all with the brake pressure. Drove around for approx. 20 minutes. I was quite shocked.
Tonight I decided to take her out again for a quick trip around my side of town, and this time after about 10 minutes I lost the brake pressure again. The brakes still function, but very poorly. It seems like if I am stopped and pump the brakes for a bit, pressure in the pedal comes back. But, when I am driving, all pressure is lost. Anyone come across anything like this? Any ideas?
Thanks!
