Bleeding the brakes can't hurt but, a little air in the system will not cause the pedal to go almost to the floor. It's the m/c.
If you hit the pedal with the engine off, it should be rock hard. If there's a bit of air in a line, it will feel a little spongy.
The only way that a pedal can go almost to the floor is if the fluid is bypassing the seals in the m/c or if there is an external leak.


With air in the line, especially on a car with ABS, when the car is off it can still feel rock hard. I've had that happen before. At any rate, the first step is for sure to bleed the hell out of the brakes. If not that, then master cylinder.
