Default clutch pedal?

ok, heres the deal. it was a nightmare but finally installed a mcleud clucth, flywheel and throwout bearing. ran great for about a month now the nightmare again. went out this mornin to start and depressed the clutch pedal and it stayed depressed there is no pressure nor any brake fluid in the resevoir, i put dot 3 brake fluid in and pumped the hell out of the pedal but still no life was put back in. do i have to bleed the line before it will take more fluid, any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. 02 camaro ls1. looks to be leaking beneath the rear main seal which was also replaced

If you ran the resevoir dry, you'll need to bleed the system after you refill it before it'll work like it should.

Get that leak fixed!

If the hydraulic fluid is leaking down by the rear main, you probably have a bad slave cylinder.
