Well when the car isn't running i have a good stiff pedal
But when i start the car i have NO brakes and have to go to the floor
I know on the older cars there was a vac line that you hooked into the back of the carb
Is there something like that for my 92 s13

i think most cars will have a stiff pedal when the engine isn't running.

but check the vac line that leads to your brake booster for leaks and what not.

check for leaking brake fluid around all your calipers

check your hardlines

do you have abs?

Okay well it must be the line somewhere because i was out there for an hour bleeding my breaks

So how do you tell if it's ABS or not
I haven't seen markings on the car that say abs
sorry i'ma :newbie: to 240's

you aren't bleeding your breaks... you were bleeding your brakes.
