97 expy brake issues

97 Expy 4WD, 4.6. My brake warning light went on the other day, and by thte time I got home, brake pedal all the way to the floor. Fluid was way down. I have replaced a couple lines in the recent past. Funny thing is, usually when the pedal went down, there was a "detent" or a stop in the travel of the brake pedal. Now there is no stop at all - it goes all the way to the floor. I put fluid in, and pumped the pedal, but cannot see anyplace where fluid is leaking. Does this sound like a MC issue?

If the fluid was down less than half way, then yes it could just be the MC. But if the fluid was more than half gone, then you have a leak somewhere.
