I HAD COME HOME FROM BEING OUT ON THE ROAD ALL WEEK, SINCE I AM AN OTR TRUCK DRIVER. I STARTED MY TRUCK TO LET IT WARM UP AND WHEN I GOT IN TO LEAVE, I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SHIFT MY TRUCK INTO (R) AND MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. SINCE I DO MOST MY MAINT. ON MY VEHICLES I FIGURED THE (MASTER CYLINDER) WENT BAD. AFTER REPLACING I WAS NOTICING THAT THERE WAS A PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID ON THE FLOOR UNDER THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAB.
