I'm working on a car FD40KL. I needed to replace the two parking brake cables so I replaced the brake shoes while I was in there. After replacing the shoes I bled the system and had no pedal. It would go to the floor. I bled the system several times and same result. I can't find any leaks and bled the system altogether about an hour. I had good brakes before I did any of the work. If there are any suggestions anyone has for me I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
