Brake & vibration problems, help wanted badly

[Falle]

I changed the plugs,wires rotar etc and washed the TY. On my way home on the highway the front suddenly started to vibrate real bad, I hit the brake and the padle just went down to the floor and the Brake light turned on. I pumped the padle and the brake came back. The vibrations and brake problem come and go, no specific speed or rpm. I checked the brakefluid and its okey. Its embarrassing that I can´t drive my TY even one month without something braking down. Believ me I dont drive it hard.
Any idea what the problem might be?

posibly loosen the booster vacuum line?
I'd look closely at the wheels and drive line to find the vibration. Broken propshaft?

strange one, shot in the dark kinda thing without being there.

Jack it up and take the wheels off and see what you can find loose or worn or anything out of the ordinary.

Thanks guys
I will check the area by the wheels later today. Could it be that while changing the plugs and other stuff that I have pulled some vacum line or something? And that when I washed the car that some crap got in between the brake pad and the disc. BTW the ABS isn´t working eather.
I´ll inform you when I get the problem fixed.

Take a look at the abs controller on the top of the drivers fender well. See if anything is pulled loose.

Hi
I checked the area around the brakes and the ABS unit and I can´t find anything loose, no leaking and nothing is broken. The brake fluid dosen´t look so bad but I am going to change it anyway. Just to see if it helps. What fluid should I use? Where can I find info for changing it the proper way?

Regards
Falle

If the pedal goes to the floor without any pressure, then has full pressure on the next stroke, your master cylinder probably has an internal leak. If your fluid level is staying, then I would say that is the problem.
