What causes spongy brakes?
"Spongy" brakes on any car are an indicator of air in the brake system. The most common way for air to enter the ststem is if the brake lines are disassembled during brake repairs. If your brakes have not been serviced, the most likely explaination is that you have a leak somewhere and you have depleted the brake fluid in the master cylinder reservoir. ADDING MORE FLUID WILL NOT HELP. Once the fluid is depleted, the master cylinder pumps air into your system. Regardless of the source of the air, the system must be "bled" i.e. air sucked out of the lines. If you do not know why you lost brake fluid, find the leak and fix it first.

Check your owner's manual, but newer cars can also illuminate the brake light if the fluid in the master brake cylinder is too low. This may have happened if the brakes were bled but not filled, or if the caliper was pushed back in, but fluid was lost in overflow, etc.

Can you lose your brakes if different fluid is put in the brake fluid how long would it take the fluid to go through the brake system?
You can damage the whole break system permanently if you put any petroleum product in your car. A friend of a friend put tranny fluid in it to top it off in a Taurus and they lost all breaks and almost died! Petro products cause the rubber elements (seals) to expand then deteriorate. If you seriously have done this consider crushing your car. The other option is to replace every part break fluid touches. Which can cost more then the car is worth sometimes.
How come when you hit your brakes on your 91 explorer 2wd with rear abs the peddle went to the floor and the truck kinda sped up?
If your brake peddle goes to the floor, you have lost brake fluid from your master cylinder in the engine compartment. Check your rubber brake hoses at each of your wheels, look for any signs of leaking brake fluid at your wheels, connections,lines, and master cylinder.
