Obtain a ' one man bleeded kit' at a parts store. There will be directions with this to get the job done. Also get a fresh container of brake fluid. You will also need the correct wrench to loosen the hydraulic lines on the master cylinder.

First, make sure the master cylinder is filled with brake fluid. If it is low, there may be a leak somewhere in the brake lines or a brake cylinder. If the master cylinder is bad, you can normally pump the brakes up, but the pedal will slowly sink to the floor again. The master cylinder needs to be replaced or repaired.

Brake bleed sequence for 85 Buick Riviera?
Always start at the wheel that is the farthest away from the master cylinder and work toward it. Typically it would be the passenger side rear, driver side rear, passenger side front and driver side front. Use a bleed kit to make sure all the air bubbles are out before moving to the next cylinder. Also make sure the master cylinder does not go dry during this process so air does not get back into the system.

When you press and hold the brake pedal it will slowly move to the floor. It can also have a catastrophic failure and go straight to the floor with no stopping ability at all. If you hold the brake pedal down and it slowly moves to the floor any at all, replace the master cylinder.
