Brakes dont work
Well, basically for the past week I have very little too no brake pressure. I just put on some front Integra brakes with new pads and rotors. The brake booster is new and the MC is new(91 4dr 15/16) I have a power bleeder and im very sure that I got all the air out of the lines.
What I can tell is that when I don't have the car running and pushing down on the brake it doesn't fully keep pressure, it just pushes air out the intake. When I have the car running and push on the brake the rev's go up which is another indication of the the brakes pushing air through the intake manifold. Also I have noticed some brake fluid leaking from the bottom of the BB but very little and it comes in little bursts every 10-15 seconds.
I'm also guessing it has nothing to do with the BB and MC being from 2 different car since they line up and other ppl have done this successfully. If anybody has any useful info please give it, im about to do what I really hate doing and that is bring it to a mechanic so they can *** rape me and break other parts of my car.

If you have bubbles at the brake booster, then you have air entering the system. Reinstall the brake booster and bleed all four corners and go from there.

Well the only place I see any kind of seal is the rubber gasket piece between the MS and brake booster and that is is new(and not backwards)
