clutch problems !help!
so on my way to work the damn clutch pedal lost pressure and slammed onto the floor. i had to pull it off the floorboard. after i did that it wouldnt depress at all, its stuck at the top. this all happened while driving like a normal person... any suggestions? any ideas? soon as i get off work i am going to tow the car home and rip the damn tranny out. i didnt see any warning signs, nothing...dont know what it could be.

sounds like a problem with the slavecylinder/throw out bearing...either way your gonna have to pull the tranny .
the pedal to the floor sounds like mine...normal driving, 4-5 shift, pedal went to the floor. no feel what so ever, turns out the bleeder valve backed off and was squirting fluid out...
as far as the pedal stuck at the top...im lost. thats about the only thing that hasnt happened to me, yet. sounds almost like the TOB seized on the slave cylinder, or something got caught in the clutch...
good luck...

check the line going to the master cylinder, my bet is it blew off. Happened to me once before. Pedal was rock hard at the top, would not move. I had to pick it up off the floor after the line blew off though.
