I double checked the cable route and it seems fine. The cable is not pulling down on the brakes at all, so that checks out.
I'm thinking maybe it somehow got air in the system?
During the cable install, I pressed the pedal to the floor in order to mark the spot for drilling the hole through the firewall. I did that and got the hole drilled and then it sat for a week before I finished up routing the cable and getting it the install finished up.
I'm just wondering if something got stuck or air somehow worked itself in because of pressing the pedal to the floor with the engine off and letting it sit for a week?
