I have bled the brakes, flushed out the dark fluid from the previous owner. How do I tell if it is the Master Cylinder? Or the Brake Booster? Please Help me!

First if the booster were bad your break peddle would be hard as a rock to push.your master cylender is bad and it may have leaking wheel cylenders they on rear breaks.
