hey guys i have been driving my 89 lx around and the brake pedal goes almost down to the floor usually, but yesterday my brakes completely failed 3 times and i had to throw the emergency brake. now i checked the pads when i bought the car cuz the guy said it needed brakes but the pads and shoes are still in great condition. i thought it was the brake booster all along but now that i experienced the brake failure i need to figure out what is wrong. is there any for sure signs that it is the booster?? i have been asking my friends with civics and they each say different things. one said booster, one said master cylinder, one also said could be a vacuum hose is leaking. any help would be great. and just a note i am still driving the car as the brakes still work, it was just the other day that i experienced this and have not had it happen since nor happened before in the 2 month n a half i have been driving it. thx
