Good luck, hopefully it's air in the line. but with the pedal being hard, I don't think so. I have very low vacuum on the engine, 11 -13 inches. I have replaced about everything and added a vacuum pump. I got the best brakes I've had , but I still can't do an emergency stop. I am installing a hydraulic power assist sytem. That will put out over 1800 psi to the wheels. I should have it done in the next week or two. I'll let you know how it goes.
