Time for a new master cylinder. My 88 did the same thing. It will soon be undrivable, so I'd jump on it. Driftmotion has them for a decent price.

Oh, and hey, you're local! Let me know if you want some help putting it in.

^Agreed. New master, and maybe a slave while your at it. Bleed, and your good to go.

Yeah, that too. Depending on the mileage it may be a very good idea just to swap in a new slave cylinder while it's apart. It's VERY easy to do the slave.
