Fresh news, I was outside tinkering with that old truck. The problem is in the front wheel circuit. I isolated the brake fluid to the wheels by pinching off the hoses and then released them one at a time while my assistant (my wife) was putting pressure on the pedal. When the rear wheels were released the pedal held strong as you would expect. When I released either front wheel the pedal went to the floor. As a note this was done with the engine running. So now we know the "problem" is in the front wheel circuit. I am still confused....it just does not make sense???
