sounds like they must have bled down or leaked out fluid. make sure everything is snug when u bleed them again.

It could be a problem with air in the lines or a problem with the master cylinder.

I would be shooting for the Master Cylinder... Get some more brake fluid and just keep trying to bleed them, before you go and change the pricey Master Cyl... Oh ya It helps to have an extra hand for bleeding the brakes LOL...

i would have the master cylinder replaced. bleed the system again and you should be good to go.

It is also possible that you have air in the master cylinder. When you buy a new master cylinder for a car you need to do a bench bleed. You hook up a couple plastic hoses where the brake lines go and put the other end in the brake fluid reservoir. Then you pump it until no air goes through the plastic hoses. This clears the air out of the master cylinder. You might try this before you replace the master cylinder.
