Pump it and see if no fluid escapes.

You can bleed it. We bled a 7G Galant at the parking lot dati because of similar symptoms. The owner was able to drive home after.

If this is setup as a hydraulic clutch, then either the slave cylinder is bad, or the master cylinder to the clutch system is bad. If cable, then the cable seized up, and could've fell out of its holder, or quadrant, under the dash. But I figure its hydraulic.

Check the clutch master cylinder. Open it up and check if there is any fluid in it. If there is, you probably have trapped air in the line. Get a good manual for instructions on how to bleed the system. Again, check your clutch system for abnormality.

Yup. It's a good band-aid fix. But don't go on a long trip yet without having had the clutch cylinder fully checked. Sometimes a repair kit will work if only the rubber is worn and the shaft is still flawless.

how would you know if you have a faulty master cylinder? sa secondary kasi madali makita ang leak. what about the master?

If the brakes don't stop easily in that case, suspect a problem with your vacuum aided power brake booster. If the master cylinder (driver's side firewall) is full of brake fluid and there's no visible fluid leaks in the wheels or brake lines and the pedal goes to the floor gradually, you probably have a bad master cylinder if there's no reason to believe the brakes need bleeding or any rear drum type brakes are properly adjusted if recently installed.

would the situation be the same for a clutch master?
