Brakes Dave 3-14-07  
I have a 84 Southwind and had to have the master cylinder and control valve replaced last fall before I stored it. I went out to move it yesterday and there were no brakes at all the pedal went all the way to the floor. Both resevoirs were empty on the master cylinder. I put fluid in and after much pumping was able to get some brakes. I took it to the same mechanic and he had 3 people look at it and drive it and could not find a leak or anything wrong with the brakes. Where did the fluid go? Are they missing something? Any suggestions would be appreciated. thank you in advance. Please email me.

Check for a leaking diaphragm in the booster. A pin hole will cause the vacuum to suck the fluid out of the master. You can usually see or feel the brake fluid inside the front of the booster right behind the master. Rich
