Icon2 96 ek clutch problem

I have a 96 ek witg a B16A swap. The clutch had no pressure so I changed the master and slave cylinders on it. I pumped the clutch up and left it over night but when I came out and checked it today it lost all pressure again. I'm at a loss of what's wrong. Any help would be awesome.

Does "pumped the clutch up" mean you bled the lines of air?

There's probably some air left in the lines. Bleed it again.

I've bled it again multiple times but it won't even get pressure at all while i pump the clutch.

You sure the new units you installed aren't faulty? Do you have a leak somewhere that you haven't spotted? Are you sure you're bleeding the system correctly?

I fixed it. I did some searching and found the way you bleed it by pumping from the slave to go from bottom to top and it ended up fixing it. Thanks for all the input though. It helped a lot.
