If the fluid is not leaking anywhere then you could have a bad master
cylinder that is leaking internally.
Other Problems that could cause this:
1. Brake shoe in rear brake assembly has come out of place and is allowing
the wheel cylinder to keep expanding (just happened to a customer last week).
2. Brake hoses are bad and are ballooning.
I have all of these parts (with pictures for easy identification) on my
website (see url below).


Hope this helps,
Ken Wilford
