<div>I still suspect the lack of proper free play in the brake pedal & this is the easiest to check. Simply adjust the free play, temporarily, such that there is excessive free play & go for a test drive. </div>

I replaced the MC innards with a kit a year or so ago but will go through it again and replace as necessary. I'll also flush the system thoroughly.</div>

<div>Go through each component one by one. Start with new brake hoses
if they are still the old fashioned rubber/textile construction.
How old are they by the way? Probably decades so renewal was
probably well overdue. Also flush the entire brake system with
fresh brake fluid as there may be some debris in it somewhere.
Try again and if solved it may well have been collapsed inner wall
of one or both of the tubes. If not solved adjust the rod on the
MBC. Still not solved, renew or overhaul the MBC and adjust the
rod. <br clear="none">
</div>
<div>When rebuilding brake components do NOT use clean brake fluid but
the special brake grease from Até, Girling or equivalent.<br clear="none">
</div>
<div>Overheating is unlikely as that will generally lead to complete
loss of brakes.</div>
