Pedal goes to floor. Master was dry, so filled. Nothing. Been pumped a lot. Running and not. Fluid that was added is still there. Still nothing.

Any thoughts? Need help.

Thanks,

you could try bleeding them. might be better to pull all drums and inspect / replace / fix leak first, it went somewhere and will again.

Bleeding in process, but seems as though I should get some pressure build up if the fluid is present. Right?

I don't believe pressure will build up until you are completely done. You will probably pull the hubs and drums and take a look. If there isn't anything that needs to be replaced (I'm not familiar with Air/Hydraulic brakes) they will probably need an adjustment. (on my M37, I replaced the master cylinder and 3 of the 4 wheel cylinders and without adjusting, the pedal has to go all but on the floor to stop it)
