Update. Took it to a shop and got it fixed. Just needed a new line going to the master cylinder.

 

Well, I had some brake work done and some new lines cut and put into replace the old rusty parts. The brakes sucked cause there was air in em, so bled them and good to go. Well, I drove about 150-200 km (about 2 hours of highway driving) and everything was good. On my trip home, just before I got on the highway, I noticed my brakes were bad. I have brake pressure, well as in the brake pedal comes up nicely. But I need to floor it to start to slow down. I dont get it, they were working great a day ago. I also checked the reservoir, and the fluid is going down. I dont even know where to start. I guess I'll try and look for fluid under the car in the morning.

FUBAR Master Cylinder? My friends brakes were absolute crap. You had to mash the pedal to the floor. My other friend and I bled them...then the original friend told us the master cylinder was messed up.
