I'm thinking your master cylinder has gone bad. Try replacing that along with bleeding the brakes with fresh, clean fluid. If that doesn't work, move onto your brake booster and brake lines. The prop valve should be fine, they don't really go bad. Good luck.

You have brakes again once you let it sit for awhile?
