Hi, I changed brake lines, put fluid in master cylinder, opened bleeder screw, pumped pedal, no fluid comes out of any of the four bleeder screws. The pedal became up and hard like a normal pedal? Where did I go wrong?

Check to see if dirt in bleeder screws or it may be an ABS problem which may require a mechanic to put his scanner on it to bleed the system this is a common problem. See link.
