Clutch bleeding woes!!!
Here's the story....
I was getting ready to bleed the clutch on my 95 Accord Ex and wanted to make sure I had the right tools. I found the right box-end wrench and test-opened the bleeder next to the slave cylinder. In the meantime, my monkey-boy clutch pedal operator stomped the clutch to the floor, emptying all of the fluid right out onto the radiator and my hands.
Heres the issue, the clutch pedal doesn't seem to build any pressure. You press the clutch in and it stays on the floor with no resistance to it whatsoever.
I have since set up the bottle with fluid at the end of the bleeder and filled the reservoir with fluid. I can pump the slave cylinder and see bubbles at the top of the reservoir but the clutch pedal still will not build pressure (goes to the floor and stays).......
Could the clutch master cylinder be totally empty? What do I need to do here?

nevermind...... there was a ton of air in the system....... it just took a ton of elbow grease to get the air out and the system bled....
