[diesel_mercedes] Re: pedal to the metal (a sinking feeling) w126

 

it does, but becomes sponge like, and pretty much goes to the floor..

I'm assuming failed master cylinder-- but thought it odd that I have a firm pedal when the engine is off-- only to go to mush when it's running.

..and if I have to pull the master cylinder-- how do I get the reservior off the top of it??
