Clutch slave cylinder

Know a person that has an 86 4runner 2.4l my husband was tryin to help this person at work last nite with his clutch sc. They got it bled seemed to be okay but after it sat at work all nite he had no clutch pedal. Decompressed over about 8 or so hrs. They say that there are no leaks, that he changed his mc a couple months ago and no air in line until it lost pressure sitting over nite. Told him that it could be gasket on the mc cap or a defective sc. Just want to make sure that going off of what they told me (since I'm not there looking at it myself) I'm not missing anything. I did also tell them to double check the connection at the pedal lever. But with that suggestion I got a look like I'm crazy and told that the pedal doesn't attach to this sc like in other vehicle cause it doesn't sit at the firewall. Is there anything I'm missing I figured that its not a line since they are saying that there is no leaks anywhere since replacing the old sc.
Thank you, brina

There are three possible things that could go wrong. One, the slave cylinder is no good, secondly the clutch master cylinder isn't functioning properly and is bleeding past the valve. The one other thing that could be wrong is the clutch bracket has broken. Have them stick their head under the dash in the upper left of the clutch pedal and see if the bracket has cracked. Those re the only possibles except for maybe a leak in the line somewhere.
 
Quatre Coureur is correct, the new members introduction section is for just that.
rbuchmann is also correct on all 3 points, and the broken pedal bracket is a common problem on the 1st and 2nd gen trucks.
