The master cylinder is a simplified version of the brake master - it does
not hold any residual pressure when released.  It has a simple one-way
valve - usually just a rubber flapper thing that lets fluid flow into the
chamber until you step on the pedal and get pressure on it to close.  The
crud that forms over time will cause those to leak like what you re****t
then clear themselves after a few pumps.  You may get by for a while just
by changing the fluid and cleaning the one you have, but that black goo
comes from deteriorating rubber so it's likely on it's way out anyway (or
you have a hose getting old).
