So yesterday the car was running great. Strong, good power, good brakes etc.... Today I get in to drive to work and the motor is good, but the brakes are getting spongy, add to that when I am at a stop light and need to keep my foot on the brake to keep it from rolling, the pedal starts slowly going to the floor. I cursed under my breath. It looks like there is an internal leak in the brake master cylinder. So anyone have a good one they can sell? Should I go to an early 944 pre 85.5?

Thanks.

When you use the car the bad parts sorts out pretty wuick, and thats a good thing. Rebuild or buy a new MC and you can sleep better at night knowing you car is just a little bit better

Well I have another master cylinder on order and should be here next week. When it arrives i take the car to my dad's garage. He has a lift. While there we replace the master, replace the rear drums and adjust them. Fix the hood release and tighten up the exhaust down pipe. Should be a good days work. LOL

Still the car was to be a toy, and even toys need some work.
