Since there was no MC trouble to start with this probably won't apply BUT...
When I replaced a MC recently the pedal felt really strange, very stiff, and
with very little travel. I took it in and out of there a dozen times before
I realized that the rubber boot on the MC that the pushrod fits into was
getting stuck in a compressed position. The old rubber wanted to stay down
so the pedal felt good for the first push, but the pushrod fell out of the
boot on it's return trip then wouldn't align properly after.
If you remove the MC and compress the boot with your hand and it stays down
then that's what it will do installed. Again this is probably not the
problem but maybe it will save someone some trouble sometime.
