Question Power Brakes C2

Have a C2 that dosen't get driven often. Power brakes were redone about 7 yrs ago. New booster & m. cylinder, lines, rotors, pads, etc. I'm now exp. a soft pedal that goes almost to the floor. The car will stop but it's scary ! Any suggestions on what to check & how?

Thanks, Bernie

Check for any leaks in system.
Check fluid level.
If low, you may need to bleed the system.
You may have drawn air into the lines.

Thanks for the info. I'm interested in the composite suspension system. How does it work and who makes it ??

Thanks,

The system works just like your existing system, just a whole lot lighter, and it's adjustable for responce and ride height on all four corners. ( If you're refering to the system I have. )

It's available from vettebrakes.com or, I got mine from ecklers.com .

Here's some info:

I love it, handles like she's painted on the road. No body roll, flat and fast as H*ll in the twisties!
