Yes you certainly can. A master cylinder that is bad can have an intermittant no pedal situation. If you had a brake leak repaired recently, that master cylinder could have been damaged if the pedal had dropped to the floor already. In some instaces an ABS problem can cause a weak braking problem.

Should keep the brake fluid clean.
