i have no clue why it wont hold pressure. 
t feels good, then it drops to the floor after a min or so. 
ump and its good then bleeds pressure again. 

nyone have any suggestions




  From what I've always been told and seen, if you hold the pedal and it slowly sinks then you have a bad master cylinder.  Best way I've seen to "ruin" a new MC is to push the pedal all the way down while doing the initial bleeding.  You can pump to bleed but don't push the pedal much over half way.
  If it simply had a low pedal then I'd pull the parking brake on halfway and see what it feels like then.  That's the issue I'm dealing with now.  Either worn shoes, drum or both.  One of these days I'll take the drums off and see.  Busy moving a house, doing brakes on a Hesston crawler along with all the usual crap right now.  :-P
