Default question about clutches

hey guys,
heres my problem my friend has a 93 civic dx and he was havin problems with his clutch. first thing i thouht the clutch as worn out and needed to be replaced. but then we figured that actually it was his hydralic fluid. so he had a family member come over and fix it. well about a month goes buy and it goes out agian. i went to check it there was no fluid in the resevior, so yes there is probably a slow leak somewhere. he put new fluid in the resevior and he pumpd the clutch, it didnt work. i told him there is air in the system and we had to bleed it. so i find the slave cylinder and bleed it and it still didnt work. the clutch pedal would just stay down it wont bounce back up. does anyone know whats wrong, do you think it could be the seals leaking or one of the lines i dunno. plz guys need help with this wanna help a friend out you know.

thanx

Most likely the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder needs to be replaced. Same thing happened on my old integra.
