After much discussion over the past month around Master Cylinders, guess what's very close to died on me while driving home in rush hour traffic? That's right - the Brake Master.
I will say one thing. It's been giving me signs for 2.5 years of going out. About that time after driving to visit DougM, I mentioned to him that it felt as if the brake pedal was sticking or better yet grabbing when pressure was applied. It would eventually return to a normal pedal, but off and on the grabbing would happen.
Well yesterday it grabbed and wouldn't let go until I placed my foot under the pedal and pulled it back up. This is how I limped home for about 6 miles. Press the pedal/pull back up with the foot.
Now, since it's intermittent - I'm hoping it might be air in the system vs. stuck piston or inner seals gone. I'm replacing the fluid and starting my search for a new one.
