Default Brake problem...

I just did the brakes of my civic dx and I'm getting some interesting results I've not run into before. Initially they go almost to the floor but do stop the car. I pump them up and they do not fade at all. I'm figuring no air in the lines but I'm not sure. Any help is appreciated. By the way I replaced the back brakes.

sounds like you did not bleed them or you have a crack in a line or if you did bleed did you tighten the boltback

If you open the line then you need to bleed the brakes, but if you just changed the pads, when you push the piston in then you only need to pump up the brakes up and the it will be fine.
