Sandy,

I too despise Taco Bell but can affirm your initial idea of what the  
issue is; Salve Cylinder Connecting Rod (or whatever the official  
name is Serge chimes in with ;). This is the lame part that is worth  
$0.02 that leaves you stranded. Same thing happened here and it sucks.

Replace that sucker and you are good to go. It is an inexpensive part  
(~$25.00 US if 'member correctly) and a simple swap. Could be the  
Master Cylinder itself, but probly' not if you felt the "snap". good  
luck and anything you need from Lima- I'm your man. ;)

sincerely,

matt ludwig.
