Imy vans brakes were going to the floor. So I purchased the master cylinder. Then bleed brakes now I have no brakes at all. What should o check next? Is the power streering effecting my braking pressure? I have a 86 ford ecoline van 250 v.6.

Look for a leak. If a rear wheel cylinder is leaking, you should be able to see fluid running down the inside sidewall of one of the rear tires. Also look along the left frame rail and rear axle for a rusted steel line. Don't overlook the front rubber hoses.
