Clutch Viagra?

well i finished my clutch install a few min ago. i went to bleed my slave cyl. cause the clutch was sloppy. after bleeding it twice it felt ok. but after doing a third bleed my clutch pedal has NO resistance what so ever. it will go to the floor and stay there. if you pull it it will pop back out. but it can be pushed to the floor with a pinky finger. more bleeding led to nothing. do i need to add fluid? is so what kind and where? if not what else could be wrong? anything else i need to be on the lookout for? could i ask more annoying questions?

It's obvious that you either bled it wrong or there is a leak somewhere. Keep the fluid level at or above the neck in the master cylinder. check your banjo connections also to make sure they're tight. If everything seems to be in order you may have a bad slave cylinder.

if there was a leak, i would i find fluid and i havent found any fluid. could i have ruined the slave cylinder by messing around with it like this. it was fine before the install.

I highly doubt it. If you can change a clutch you should be able to figure this out. Did you remove the clutch line?

I'd guess you have air in your lines, probably let the fluid level drop below the min level on your last bleed and didn't notice you were sucking air. Do another bleed with a second person to help you watch fluid levels.
