The hard brake pedal means that there is (for a while) a massive air vacuum leak, The power brakes rely on good vacuum. The massive air leak could cause all cylinders to misfire due to an extremely lean mixture. The brake booster may have a leak but that normally is constant not intermittent. Maybe your AIC air idle control valve is momentarily letting in an uncontrolled (large) amount of air. You'll have to go over all the vacuum intake air hoses and controls for a problem. Scan is good to do but in this case it shows the result...not the cause. Look for leaks.
