like I said, check the master cylinder as well, one of the internal seals could have given out or have a pinhole in it.

Take the lines off the ,master cylinder, block them off with a bolt but dont tighten it to much or it can damage the master cylinder, an mash down your peddle, if it is hard an dont go down you have another problem , but if it leaks down soft you need a new master cylinder, to take off your lines, use a 10mm Flare wrench only

sounds like a master cyl. to me go to autozone and pick one up shouldnt take you more than 30 min me and a buddy just did it on my hatch last weekend
if you drive on it too long you can cause the booster to leak as well, so fix it sooner rather than later.
