I had this problem on a rally spec Escort RS2000. I had been working on the brakes and adjusted the free play on the master cylinder - as a result the piston wasnt coming fully up which it needs to do to release the hydraulic fluid pressure.

Your symptoms sound identical. I'd check around the master cylinder.
