1991 Chevy pickup. Stepped on the brakes and they suddenly went down like a brake line burst. I checked the fluid and for any leaks, but none. I can still stop, but have to push the brake pedal way down and the brake warning light comes on. Thinking it must be master cylinder as the brake pedal is really spongy, but still works if pushed way down.

- I would normally go along with the air in the brake lines, but this happened all of a sudden one day while driving. Just like a line burst.... (good brakes and, wham, the pedal went down almost to the floor board). I pulled over and checked all lines and fluid level. All was OK. I continued to drive it home and one other time as the brakes still work, but now it goes almost to the floor and the brake trouble light comes on. I am pretty sure when the booster goes out, the brake pedal gets really hard to push. Don't want to buy that if it is not the problem.
