Default no fluid coming out when bleeding brakes

I had very soft brakes so I went to bleed them. I noticed that both rear cylinders were leaking so I replaced those. After installation I went to bleed them again and fluid would only come out the first few pumps.

I replaced the master cylinder (bench bled also) and also replaced the brake booster.

I went to bleed the lines again. The rear right bled fine. The rear left will only bleed good for a few pumps. The front right and front left also have this same problem.

Here is how I am doing it. I pump the brakes 3 times and then hold it down. While its held down I open the valve and fluid will come out. After doing this about 2 or 3 times, less and less fluid comes out. Eventually its nothing.

Any thoughts?
