I just put new brake booster, and master cylinder in my explorer, but my brakes are only hard when my explorer is turned off. They get hard when the vehicle is turned of, and I have bleeded them. Its just as soon as the explorer is started the brakes get really soft and stop working. Any suggestions?

thanks

Why did you replaced these parts for what reason? Did you check the vacuum line and the check valve to the booster.
