Hi I have a problem with my brakes and it's starting to annoy me now The symptons are that the pedal sinks to the floor when you apply the brakes and the car only starts to pull up when the pedal reaches the floor! You really have to stand on them to get it to stop.
I think I have tracked the problem down to the servo as there is fluid leaking out the back of it, coating the shaft and filling up the rubber bung that goes between the servo and bulkhead.
I have replaced the front pads, fitted new Goodridge braided brake hoses and checked for any leaks anywhere and also the metal pipes seem fine.
So do I need a new servo, or master cylinder, or both???
The car is a 1978 HC Viva, with lockheed master cylinder and calipers and a Magnum back axle with lockheed wheel cylinders.
Any help or suggestions gratefully received
