Soft Brake Pedal
Hey Guys,
I'm out of ideas on what to try at this point. This all started with a master cylinder replacement and the ac Delco I ordered was defective from factory. My mechanic replaced it with a Doorman from Autozone and I've been chasing this soft brake pedal issue for months now. Symptoms

Hopefully he bench bled the master first before installing.
Were the rears adjusted manually first? Can your mechanic pressure bleed? |
It is possible to simply gravity bleed the brakes, but I suspect the rear shoes aren’t adjusted correctly, and the master wasn’t bench bled.

It's definitely possible it wasn't completely bench bled before install. Would I be able to do that with it on the car or is it most likely shot now that I've driven on it like this? What is gravity bleeding I haven't heard of that before? |

Maybe it wasn't bled in the correct order. Bleeding order is not what you might think it is.

Or a bad brake booster.
