Hello SHO folks,

I have a 94 ATX SHO w/ 115K mls, it is my wife's car.

Today she noticed that in order to get any brakes she had to press the
peddle down to the floor.
She was scared so she left the car at school.

I went and picked it up and drove it home, carefully of-course :)
I have no brakes until the peddle is to the floor and the brakes I do have
take some time to bring the SHO to a complete stop, kind of scary.

Could the break cylinder be going bad or could it be the fact that my rear
brakes need changing? Front brake pads are good. 2 yrs old. I checked the
brake fluid reservoir and the lvl is normal.

Would old brake fluid cause this? I changed it a couple of years ago.

Thank you kindly for your assistance.
