I am having an unusual brake issue on my '97 Explorer. It has the OHV engine. So far I have replaced all brake pads, flushed system 3 times, replaced master cylinder due to sinking pedal when stopped, and replaced brake booster due to vacuum leak. The problem I am having is a "spongy" pedal, but only when braking from highway speeds to slow down for traffic. In downtown stop and go traffic pedal is firm, and once I get slowed down for traffic from highway speeds pedal is firm, but while slowing down is when I get a spongy feeling to the pedal. Truck always stops, and does not seem to be taking any longer distance to stop, just the spongy feel to the pedal. Any ideas??
