On the way to class this morning, about to shift to 3rd (or was it 4th...like it matters), pushed the clutch in, felt a *pop*, and the clutch dropped right to the floor like nothing. Absolutely no resistance what so ever.
I was able to pull over off the side of the road, and by now I can't even push the clutch pedal down at all. The furthest it goes is like maybe an inch, it feels like it stops right at the friction point.
Checked the master cylinder, there's fluid, but it's low. Looked at the slave cylinder, it appears to be dry as a bone. There is fluid on the crossmember, it may be brake fluid, it has the same consistency and color, and doesn't smell like 90w. The tranny mount is soaked in it, but I don't see any leaks near/around the slave cylinder.
Any ideas? I REALLY need to get back on the road again ASAP.
Thanks in advance,
Lloyd.
