Default No pedal pressure

A couple weeks ago my clutch pedal just sunk to the floor and stayed there. Throught it was the slave cylinder, replaced it, noticed the clutch was fried, replaced it too. Put everything back together, bleed the system couldnt get any pedal pressure. Replaced the clutch master cylinder, when replaced it noticed the clutch pedal return spring was broken, havent replaced it yet but dont think that little spring could caused the problem.

No idea what to do next. Anyone got any ideas.

The return spring isn't it. After replacing 2 I stopped buying em and haven't had one for 3+ years.

Pull the line off the slave and see if you can't depress the pedal. If so the master is bled. If not, take the master off and bench bleed it. Fill it with fluid and install it full. Bleed the slave.

It sounds like the system needs to be bled.
