Default Brake booster or master cylinder or both!?!?!?!

Just bought a 91 Integra GS. ABS light comes on after about 3 minutes, but friend thats a Honda mechanic says its nothing to worry about, just the ABS wont work, which I dont care about. Well while driving the other day I was sitting at a light and the brake pedal began to go closer and closer to the floor. Scared the **** outta me. So I kinda pumped it and it then did it again. Well traffic started goin, so I started goin too. Drove home and it didnt do it again (stopped at like 4 more or so lights). Well now Im afraid to drive it. There are no leaks inside the car. There is what appears to be a long term leak between the master cylinder and the brake booster. All full on brake fluid and doesnt appear to be any leaks at any of the calipers. Help me please!

Sounds to me like your master cylinder is shot. Bleeding the fluid might help, but I think it'll only be temporary.

I kinda let up on the pressure and started to pump it so i didnt really let it go to the floor completely, but it may as well have been on the floor. It was probably less than an inch away.
