check there isnt any leaks anywhere, a hose may have split or corroded. have you tried all the bleed nipples. you may find 2 are better than the other two, the two worse ones may be on the broken half of the system. if its all as bad then just look round the whole system for leaks. If there arnt any then check your wheel cylinders to see if they have seized or are leaking. i didnt see mine were leaking till i removed the drum and pumped the pedal. if they are ok then masted cylinder / servo may be at fault. silly question but has the pin fallen out the pedal? it may be your pedal isnt connected, doubtful but worth a look

have a look to see if you have lost brake fluid, then you will know if you have a leak or some other fault

1. Don't drive the car.
2. Check the brake fluid level
3. If the fluid is low take of the wheels and see where the fluid has leaked from. e.g. rear wheel cylinder, cylinder, etc.
4. Replace the defective component(s).
5. Bleed system with new fluid.
6. If the fluid is not low suspect the master cylinder and change it.
