clutch went out while driving, wouldnt go into gear while driving and engine running..unless you turned off car and then pressed clutch pedal in and shifted into 1st..then driving wouldnt go into other gears.. got it home and then pedal ended up having no "resistance" when pushed..like the pedal wasnt connected to anything..replaced master and secondary hydralic clutch cylinders.. tried bleeding normally and then back blead..clutch pedal still has no "resistance" ... if car is turned off can shift all gears with or without clutch pressed down...turned on can not shift into any gear. problem?

will come here for all my problems and donate if this can be answered.
Thank you :)

You need to open it up and check the seals/cups
