Default Clutch pedal grabbing really low to floor

Hey guys! I've got a 92 4dr. 1.5L and the clutch pedal is grabbing like right at the floor. And the shifting is really hard. Is this a clutch problem, or a slave cylinder problem?

might be slave cylinder...check the clutch reservior to see if its full or not...if not u might just need some clutch fluid..if full it could be the slave cylinder

Yeah the fluid is still there. At first is was low, but then I added, and it still does the same thing.

also, you can adjust the rod on the slave cylinder where the rod connects to the pedal under the dash to where all the threads are all furthest away from the pedal as possible so taht the rod goes into the slave cylinder as far as possible...

When mine did this it was the slave cylinder. Or you have a leak somewhere along the line. Fluid just doesn't normally disappear. Not saying these are the only two scenarios, but check them out.

Have someone press the clutch pedal while the car is off and check how far the slave cylinder is traveling, If it hardly moves, I recommend replacing it. I that doesn't do it replace the master.

Has the clutch ever been replaced? How long ago? If not maybe it time to replace it.
