slave cylinder?? please help!!!

within 10 shifts or so, the clutch pedal depressed more and more until releasing the clutch. finally, the clutch pedal stuck to the floor and i can't get it into gear. i can pull the clutch pedal off the floor still. when i checked the resevoir, it was empty. i filled with more fluid with the same results. is the slave cylinder gone? i'm getting the car towed back to my house now. i remember seeing threads about this many times. i wish the google search option or any other search would work on this site again.

please help me our!! i need to get this fixed asap.

there must be a leak somewhere. Check the various lines and try to locate the leak.

if for some reason you dont locate a leak. Refill with break fluid (dot3), and give the system a good bleed. Drive as normal but periodically check your fluid level and see if its going down.

i just bled the system and the clutch is working now. i'm going to drive it to work and check the fluid level periodically i guess. it has to be a leak somewhere. i'll have to check it out later. thanks for your help!
