    I know that the master cylinder was good on the second one, the car wasn't running because of the engine.

    I'm gonna fix it this weekend. Thanks for all the help.

    seized lines?
    eBay is a great place to get cheap NEW parts.
    You can get a master cylinder for like 35 bucks shipped.
    Also super research the correct way to bleed brakes.
    If any , I repeat, any air gets in all your effort is for nothing.
    Or just take it to just brakes or something. theyl find your problem deffinately.

    could be weak rubber lines going to the caliper and swelling when brakes are applied feeling spongy and one could be fine and not the other letting it grab sooner,air in system,also sticking caliper will make more fluid disperse to opposite side quicker if its slow to grab causing distribution surge and if you barely lay foot on pedal and it keeps goin down till theres no pedal it may still be the master cylinder and if its air in line the one side thats not grabing is most likely where the air is...
    LET ME GUESS... YOU MISSED A GEAR!
