I would guess one of two things caused you to lose brakes, either the
piston seal at the very back of the M/C allowed air to be drawn in
between the booster and the master (which will usually cause wetness
on the bottom of the booster) or if its a dual master (I dont recall
if thats been mentioned) it could have been "swapping" fluid from the
front to the rear systems instead of forcing it back to the brakes.

rebuilt the master cylinder again, that didn't help so re bled the system and that did it!! question how did air get into the system as the master cyl. was never low??
