    Once I wait a few seconds after remove my foot from the brake pedal, the brakes will release.
    The fluid volume needed to compress the pads is SLOWLY being pulled back into the master cylinder.

    The pedal is returning back into the up position quickly and fully
    But if you hit it again quickly - before the brakes release - what does it feel like?

    I had time tonight to check one thing. I pulled the attachment/glide pins and cleaned then and lubricated the pins. Some of them had some anti squeak stuff on the pins that got in the holes. Cleaning them and lubricating them made a big difference in the way the pins felt sliding back in. After this I took the car out around the block and...no difference.
    As soon as I get some help, I'll check the hoses by opening the bleed screw when someone applies/releases the brakes.
    Thanks for the help guys.
