Clutch falls to the floor while driving then suddenly works again for a while, rinse
So yeah, pretty self explanatory and need to entire it starts working after I pump the pedal for a while. A while back I heard a metal snap coming from my clutch pedal, but it was working fine if not better than before the snap. All of a sudden this happens. I tried to look around, but no one really had this specific issue. Of course my first thought is the master/slave cylinders, but I also read somewhere that perhaps my pedal came off of the cylinder. Any insight would be great.
Thank you,
Endrance

There is a spring behind the pedal. Might be worth checking if it broke.

edit - if the pedal came off the cylinder, youd notice that just taking a look behind that kick plate

Fluid levels are fine, and that's what my mechanic told me. Doing a new clutch, flywheel, throw out, slave...etc since the tranny is going to be down. I don't think the fluid had been touched though since my car was new. Just hit 94k so I guess it's about time.
