Brand spankin' new master.  To help isolate this even further, here is what
the system has now:

- new calipers & pads
- new flex hoses all the way around
- new rear wheel cylinders & shoes
- new e-brake cables
- new master cylinder
- new brake fluid, all the rest was drained

Current behaviour:

start the car, no brake alarm, press brake solid.  Can move the car with
brake, still solid.  Now stand full force on the brake, it will slowly fade
to the floor and then the brake alarm comes on.

If anyone needs me to do something extra to help isolate, speak up
please.......

Thanks
