If you were "losing vacuum" your pedal would not be going down. Vacuumn is
what helps to cause your pedal to go down so if you had less it would be
harder to push.

The answer most likely, if there are no signs of leakage and the fluid level
is ok, is that your master cylinder is bypassing internally. Sounds like
you need a new master cylinder. They are about a $100 at the local parts
store if you install it yourself.

I would replace that first and then do another test to see if it is pulling.
If I was working on the car I would probably pull the front wheels and check
to see if the inner and outer pads on both calipers were wearing evenly.

I would get this fixed ASAP since it is obviously a safety concern.

I replaced mine on a 96 accord in about an hour including the bleeding.
That would be the bleeding of my brakes and my hands.
