my 92 parking brake light in the dash comes on when i press the brake pedal down about half way. but if i pump the brake once before pressing the pedal all the way down the light will not come on. and if the light is on and i pump the brakes it goes off.
I have checked the fluid and it is full
does any know wat the problem mite be?
i can also feel something in the pedal when the light either goes on or off

you either have some air in the lines, or a bad master cylinder. If you haven' done any recent work, then i would say its a bad master. The bore is more than likely a bit corroded allowing fluid to leak passed the O-rings.
