i have a 98 z-71 with a 350 and when i hit the brakes i don't seem to have any pedal like they need to be bled but they have been bled does anyone have any idea what the problem might be

Could be your master cylinder. You should first perform a thourough visual inspection of the hygraulic system for leaks...hoses, calipers, wheel cylinders. Make sure that the hoses arent expainding too much when the brake is depressed. Also check and make sure that the caliper slide pins arent' siezed...this will give the feeling of a spongy to no pedal also. If all of that checks out OK, I'll bet that the master cylinder is leaking internally...you might even see some brake fluid where the master bolts to the power booster.

if my pins were siezed, would it pull to one side if the pins were siezed on one size. i also had a problem today after i got off work early so i decided to change my oil and wash my truck. ididn't have time to thoroughly wash it so i took it to mikes car wash in indy(because thats where i live) and after i left my truck won't hardly run between 800-1500 rpm. it only does it in drive, not neutral
