    Battery DEAD, DEAD !!!

My 1998 K2500 is having a slightly similar problem with losing fuel pressure prime. If I...

    Fluid leak behind master cylinder

    Your brake fluid looks quite low. Check your brakes, if you have lots of pad material you probably have a master cylinder leak. If you have a lot of miles on the vehicle it may be worth it to do both the master cylinder and the hydroboost unit at the same time. Take a look underneath the dash...
