I've been through the forums, service manuals, and the brains of my friends in search of solutions to my issues, but I have found none.

When I purchased my car, my pedal was dead until the last half inch of its range of motion. That half inch felt like a normal brake pedal and would stop the car.

I replaced the booster, and have since flushed and bled the system almost a dozen times with the same results.

I now have a pedal that goes all the way to the floor.. pumping produces some resistance, but as the pumping slows the pedal inevitably goes to the floor. My line of thinking is that it's the master cylinder. The previous owner had said that he had replaced it, but the caps on the resevoir are cracked and leaked during the pressure bleeding process. I have stopped them from leaking with some expertly placed hose clamps, but the pedal still goes to the floor. I'm prepared to order a new master cylinder, but I wanted to check here first with the collective mind to ensure proper course of action.
