Re: 86 Spider clutch gremlin

You somehow have lost all of your fluid, including that which was in the 
master cylinder. Even after filling the reservoir, there is still air in the
cylinder, and thus system. You need to bleed from the slave, and make sure
you get all of the air out.

This is my best guess, hope it helps
