alright well ive searched an i cant find what im looking for. but today when i was leaving work i went to leave an the clutch pedal was fine, but the second i hit the roads the pedal had no pressure on the top half an then has pressure on the bottom half an the clutch was engagin right off the floor. once i got home i check the res an had no fluid in it, i checked the bell housing an i couldnt really feel any fluid but it was a little little damp.

would my MC be bad or Slave? also if its the slave could i replaced it without dropping the tranny? like just slide the tranny back as far as i can an squeeze my hands in to unbolt it?
 
sadly you will have to take the trans off to get to the slave, maybe you can set up some jack stands and try to slide it back but it can be quite a pain.. thats pretty weird that you have no clutch fluid and no wet spots anywhere. someone on here should be able to take this further!
 
Check the master cylinder first. They can leak inside the vehicle making it difficult to spot, it soaks into the carpet.
 
well i took at closer look at it with my dad an it acually is wet in the bell housing so i take its probably the slave, an i bled the clutch just incase its sucked in air which is most likley did cuz i wasnt engaging an crap, but i bled it for like 20 min an now it is working good im just goin to keep on top of the fluid until i have a weekend off soon to change out the slave.
 
i had the exact same problem, it just suddenly happenned when i started it up a week and a half ago. i bled it like 5 times and had it engagin half way out. it has progressively got better on its own. its workin like it should now. i pulled the dust cover and could see some fluid on the throwout bearing. not alot though. my dad told me i should drive it for like a month and were gonna tear it apart on a weekend.
