You can bleed the system all you want and STILL have the pedal go to floor unless the master cylinder was bench bled in a vice BEFORE it was put on the vehicle. ALWAYS bench bleed a master cylinder before you put it in service. If you don't, you'll never get the pedal off the floor.
If you break fluid level is correct and your break pedal goes down to the floor means that your master cylinder is going bad and you might loose your breaks completely if not checked or replaced. Your breaking system is down to the last O ring inside the master cylinder, once that rubber O rings goes you will not have any breaks at all. Master cylinders have a number of rubber O rings that work like a plunger or piston that produce pressure within the breaking system. When the first one wears down due to age, your pedal begins to loose break pressure and you have to pump your breaks several times to gain breaking. You are now down to the last rubber O ring and a warning that your master cylinder needs to be checked. You can still use your breaks but only for a few days before the other rubber O ring gives out too. Once both O rings give out you completely loose your breaks.
you either have a busted break line or your master cylinder needs to be replaced. check around all wheels for fluid leakage , If no fluid seen check to see if the cylinder is full , If mot fill it and pump the breaks and look again for fluid leakage.
sounds like you have a worn set of park break shoes. they are located inside /behind the read rotors. if you remove the rotor and the shoes look fine then you can adjust them with the little star gear located on the bottom of the brake shoes.
