My Guess

Sounds like either the clutch slave cylinder, or the tubing from the slave cylinder is leaving. Check the fluid level of the clutch fluid.

Check the fluid level in the clutch master. Sounds like the master or slave went, which isn't too bad of a fix.

The slave cylinder will be mounted to the front of the trans, and the master is mounted to the left of the brake master. Neither is terrible to do,, and once you see them it is fairly straight forward. To bleed it, you will need someone else, and you bleed it like you would a brake system, have someone hold the clutch pedal down, open the bleeder, repeat until you get a good pedal and no air. Make sure you do not run the master out of fluid. It won't take long to run the resiviour down, just be aware. Good luck!
