I have a 1990 Ford Tempo that I'm having brake problems. This is what I have done to the car so far:
*Bleed all four tires
*New master cyclinder
*Checked the car for leaks, none
I did bench bleed the master cyclinder. The pedal still goes all the way down. What can it be?
 
i think that car has rear shoes if the pedal is going to the floor your shoes are probably bare check those and your wheel cylinders could be leaking without you seeing it
 
Does the pedal pump up if you rapidly pump the brakes? If it pumps up, does it feel "soft and spongy?"
It sounds like you still have air in the system - bleed the brakes thoroughly again.
 
The fact that you have a 1990 Ford Tempo could be the problem. Not worth the time and money. I guarantee you've already put more money into it than the car is actually worth. But if you really want to fix it. Take it to a mechanic, ask them what's wrong and fix it yourself. I don't know what to tell you if you've already bled the brake fluid. Maybe try bleeding all of it and completely replacing it.
