Did the pedal feel any better after the master was fitted?

I had a similar problem on a mini I had to pump the pedal 3/4 times quickly to do an emergency stop.i changed the servo and all was well. As for the price of a new servo I wouldn't like to guess $$$$$$$$, ask @krutly he has a place near him who break L200 and he can prob guide you to the correct one for your model of L200 it's worth a punt and would be one less item off the list of possibilities, I would go down that route first as it's probably the cheaper option before taking it to be professionally investigated. Don't loose heart this is the frustration of owning an L200 they are an ass of a truck but when working are pretty good fun and with the looks your truck has will make you feel like you are THE MAN.

I hate to say it but the master cylinder probably isn't your problem then.
It's unlikely that the new part is faulty (but not impossible so never completely rule it out) so it's either something else or something you've done.
In my experience a faulty part or a problem repair will usually produce slightly different symptoms, if it is a exactly the same it is most likely that the fault lies elsewhere.
It's very difficult to diagnose the problem without seeing the vehicle but I would have a good look over the rest of the braking system and take the rear drums off. One thing you could try first is clamp off all four flexible hoses and see if you get a good pedal, if you do it will prove it is not a master problem.

Take a step back and retrace your steps, I'm sure you've missed something simple.....very often the case when things start to go wrong and you start to get stressed by it
Failing that .....burn it! teehee!

Ronnie you are so correct I went to a Mechanic, but even he is stumped. We got a good pedal, we HAVE Lost the FADE. so that is a plus. BUT!!!! The minute a switch the engine on the pressure falls to the floor. When a pump a get it back and now it stays. Better than before. The brakes do exist but right down at the bottom of the pedal.

And it is going to be somfin so stupid. I am lookin for a local brake specalist, cause a need them SORTED. To spend £100 + on a new servo at this stage, without knowin for sure is just a bit mind boggelin if it dont do the fix.

Mine have been done fairly recent but I did them again the top of the potswere abit rough but every thing was and definatley are now movin good. I am the kind of mecomic that despite all the measures I took, got fluid all over the shop except on ma brakes ofcourse. Armpits floor bosses entrance into the garage. An hour to do the job and 2 to clear up.
