So I was driving today.. boosted a little. and the car depressurized or something and I lost all my brake power.
I could floor the pedal and get it to minimally squeeze the brakes for stopping power. .. it was like I drove thru a puddle of oil and lost all friction, too.
I'm guessing I lost the master cylinder .. there's a fluid running down the engine hitting the exhaust system too it was smoking.. I'm guessing that's brake fluid also .
what should I tear out of this.. . start with the master cylinder and rebuild it?
