Bleed the brake lines and make sure there is no air in the system.
you either need to bleed your brakes, add fluid or get a master cylinder darrellshandyman@live.com
The best way to know when your automobile needs brakes is when they start squeaking, grinding against metal, leaking brake fluid and the pedal going to the floor.
Spring brakes are intended to be used solely as parking brakes. If you're in a desperate situation, you can use them as an emergency brake, but if you're grossing out at 80k and going down Vale Pass, all you're going to accomplish is to burn up your brakes and possibly cause your truck to catch fire... best to just hit the runaway ramp at that point.
You waited for a break in traffic. When another driver cut in front of you, you applied your car brakes, and again waited for a break in traffic before going through the intersection.
First thing is to check the fluid level and check for leaks. Also check the calipers and pads for proper installation and movement.

Vacuum booster is working--When vehicle off there is no vacuum assist (for power brakes) When vehicle is on vacuum is present Brake pedal going to floor is another problem--no fluid in master cylinder? Leak in system? Brakes not adjusted properly?
If your brakes work going backwards better than forwards, you should replace your front brakes. You can get your rotors turned to save time, as well.
Saturn is not going to become a dwarf planet.
slowly push it along then pull the brakes, if it stops, THE BRAKES WORK!!! if it keeps going, THE BRAKES DON'T WORK!!! IT'S ROCKET SCIENCE!!!
they are bled to remove air out of your brake system. bleeding prevents you from having mushy brakes or your pedal going to the floor. it also makes the pedal tight and more sensitive to your feet.
Vacuum brake booster is defective or the hose going to the booster is leaking.
