brake failure light on.. then off .... ???? 200

84 240.. one year old master brake master cyl.
Very strange.. I felt a little chatter on one of the front brakes.. it
went away.. a bit later the failure light pops on and the brakes get mushy.
I pulled into a gas station.. no leaks or any other obvious problem.. then
the brake pressure came back up and all is well... drove it around that day
with no problems.. ran it 300 miles to Eastern side of the state... no problems.
I talked with a good mechanic here localy and he seemed to think something
might have hung up a front caliper.. as he pointed out.. if the master cyl fails
it doesnt come back....
Soooooo what else could be goen on here.. This freaken brick is possesed!

TIA
