My car i thought had a decent feeling clutch never slipped or anything like that. Its a 97 2.2 5spd, then the other day i got in my car and suddednly the clutch pedal was all slack and i could barley get the clutch disengaged enough to shift. Then the other day i couldn't push the clutch in at all so i can't get the car to get into gear so its just sitting outside in the parkinglot. Is this my clutch or something more serious?

Could be the preassure plate. (clutch assembly)

when you said that you couldnt push the clutch in at all do you mean that the pedal would not push in? or do you mean that you can push the pedal all the way down and your clutch does not work. If you can push the pedal all the way down and you try and shift and it grinds and will not let you put it in gear then you need a new clutch.

yeah i push it all the way in and nothing happens and it grinds...shit well time 2 call about a new clutch i guess

One more quick question i talked to the repair guy and he said if my clutch wasn't slipping it could be a hydrualic leak. I looked at the resuvaior and there was a little pool of fluid at the bottom of it but its really shallow not sure if it should be filled to the top or what. Any help would be great.

put in some DOT 3 brake fluid on the resuvaior... see if it helps.

yeah make sure you got fluid in your clutch resevoir. If it is full and still doesnt work, then your clutch is burnt out.
