What did I do wrong? Brake question 200

posted by  someone claiming to be John Pruitt on  Thu Aug 31 15:27 CST 2006 [RELATED]

I feel like an idiot here, but I was going to try and change the rotors and pads on my 240 but after I got into it a bit decided to let a mechanic do it. I had gotten as far as removing the caliper (I think that is what it is called) and after I loosened the four bolts the fluid drained. I put things back together and after I added more fluid, the brake peddle goes to the floor and makes makes a sound like when you use a bellow on a fire.

I was going to drive this to my mechanic but obviously cannot now. Any help is appreciated. Thank you
