check the master cylindar to see if theres any fluid in there. they have a problem with the brake lines rusting and cracking right behind the gas tank. look by there and see if you can see fluid

Air get in there somehow? could always give them a bleed. If that doesn't do it I'd check your vacuum line going into the MC. And lastly check the MC/get a new one. They're easy to take apart and replace the seals though.

the master cylinder has gone bad. swap it out, check for any rusted brake lines and replace them while your at it. you will need to bleed the brakes real good to make sure you get all the air out.
