A couple of weeks ago I went for ride and as I was coming to a stop in a
parking lot, my brake pedal went straight to the floor! Scary to say the
least........ (I had noticed before that the brake reservoir was low, so a few
days before I added fluid. Everything seemed to be OK.) When I got out &
checked the reservoir, it was just about empty again! I had the car towed home
and it was all wet under the master cylinder. I just went to check it out
tonight & the brakes feel fine (Even though the master cyl is almost empty) It
seems to be leaking where the master cyl attaches to the booster. My question
is........ Should I just replace/rebuild just the master cyl or should I
replace both the booster & the master cyl??

Thanks for your help.........
