there is a valve in the booster,, when the pedal opens the valve, it allows 
vacuum to pull on the system and assist in the pressure required by your 
foot.......... if the pedal moves before you actuate it,, then the valve is 
working by itself..

I'll bet that the booster is full of bake fluid, and causing this.

take the master cyl off.. and dip something in the hole to see if there is 
fluid in there

if there is ,,, use a steel tube bent in a U so it can go in thru the hole.. 
and reach near the bottom of the booster... and then put a hose on the other 
end,, and figure a way to pump the fluid out,, or siphon the fluid out,, or 
use a wet vac ,,, or tip the booster up to drain it,,, or,,,,

old master cyl can leak out the seal that is between the master and the 
booster,, and you will have a fluid leak that you can't see..
