Your brake master cylinder is trashed. I chased the same gremlin in my car for a while and finally bought a new MC. Mine stuck me IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD during rush hour. There was no moving the car at all for ten minutes. Note: Clutches put out a great deal of smoke if you try to move. That isn't good... Had to crack open a bleed screw and the car groaned as if it was dead. Got moving just in time to avoid the shouts of, "Need some Plutonium??" You can get it from the vendors - DMC Joe now selling it for a great price, or from any local vendor for a 1986 Saab 900. Different numbers, (different bore) same result. ($71) That's what I did. No problems. YMMV. Good luck. #3302 -Steve Peck --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
