I got told my brake power booster. I was able to bleed but found myself bleeding my brake fluid out so the cylinder was good. Going to check out the booster tomorrow

Mine was the brake line wore through, looked at first like someone cut it had it fixed brakes great now

Weak breaks I'd go through it one more time, did you put a new master cylinder in? Power booster./ Just one thing did you have to release the brake fluid pressure before working on brakes? Unless you had a leaking line that relived the pressure. Ok everything good line no leaks what so ever. One or two things I would like to recommend bleed your break again with proper fluid 3dot now sense you have power breaks turn your engine on start it up you will start with the right rear then left and front you do have a helper to pump the breaks of course you do.this might be the problem two power booster needs replacing try engine on
