I am having a problem with the brake peddle not coming back up. Power Brakes, brakes stop car. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Thanks, I'll give it try. I am actually redoing the whole brake system, lines, calipers, etc, but I checked it after replacing a couple parts and it was still staying done.
Maybe that will do it. Thanks again.

The only time I've seen that is when the MC is rusted inside.

Nick, make sure your pivot bolt that bolts the mastercylinder rod to the pedal DOES allow the mastercylinder rod to "pivot". It can't be tightly clamped to the pedal. Jess
Yeah, it's hopped up to over 160...

Thanks Lefty. I did just put a new master cylinder on it. That was my first guess at it, but same result.
Jess, Didn't pay attention to the rod when I replaced the Master cylinder. I'll check it out.
Thanks

When you split the m/c and booster to check the clearance, start it & push the pedal & see if it now returns OK
