Default no pressure in clutch pedal

I just finished putting in my transmission after replacing a few bearings in there. When everything was back on the car, I push down the clutch pedal to try to start the car and the pedal falls to the floor. I reached in the boot that covers the shift fork and asked a friend to step on the clutch pedal, no movement from the slave cylinder.

There's no leak that I can see. I tried bleeding the slave cylinder, but nothing comes out of the bleeder valve. I loosened the line that goes to the slave cylinder and when I push on the clutch pedal, fluid comes of that line.

Is it the slave cylinder? If so, what happened to it? It was fine before I took out the tranny.

is the car going in gear, meaning when it hit the floor was the clutch disengaged if it was your pedal is bad maybe a bad return spring also check the FSM towards the proper bleeding procedures for your car because if you pump the pedal and build pressure in the line air bubbles break up into little itty bitty bubbles that would bleed out

Try replacing your master clutch cylinder... It might be bypassing. Meaning that when the pedal is pressed the fluid goes around the seal inside the clutch cylinder.

piston might of gotten ****'d inside the cylinder. try pushing it in to striaghten it out, give it a shot and bleed it again.
