brake pedal goes all way down but can be pumped up, this happened after installed new wheel cylinder kits on the front wheels but not till i adjusted the brake shoes then it lost it, i have pulled the hubs and rechecked everything and re adjusted and have bled them 3 times did the master lose it at some point? after pumping up keeping pressure on it seems to hold the pressure thank you hopefully Gene
