Default 2 problems. 1 major. 1 minor. 95 civic DX

ok Im having 2 problems with my civic currently and was hopeing someone here could give me some insight into solving them.

problem #1:
My clutch was working perfectly, no grinds, no sticking. I leave it parked in my driveway over night, come out the next day and the clutch peddle goes to the floor and stays. I look in the resevoir and its completely out of clutch fluid. What would cause this? Someone mentioned to me it might be the slave cylider.

problem #2:
Car idles fine when first started. I drive for a little while and go to stop the car. The motor then appears to be reving. It does it for a minute then idles fine once again. What could cause this?

Any help would be appreciated, ive been without my car for going on 3 weeks now due to the clutch problem.

Also, can anyone tell me what kind of ECU I have? (p28, etc...)

Once again the car is a 95 Civic DX

Problem 1: Look for leaks around the Clutch resevoir and flowly the line to see any leaks. Also check the slave cylinder by your clutch peddle under the dash and feel for some grimy oily stuff there, if you feel that then your slave cylinder went out and needs to be replaced.

Problem 2: Try cleaning your IACV (Idle Air Control Valve) also does it flucuate alot or just every once in a while?

Question: You have a p08 i think. Its a D15b7 engine and ecu.

You might explore the possibility of a tps (throttle position sensor). Just a thought.

1. Check Clutch Master Cylinder. Look under your dash where the clutch enters the firewall. You'll see a "rod" going through the firewall with a rubber bushing surrounding it. If there is a build up of oil on it, it's the Clutch Master Cylinder. If not and it's all dry, check the resevoir and the line going INTO the Clutch Master Cylinder for any leaks. Check the fitting on the Clutch Master Cylinder aswell. Follow the clutch line that goes along the firewall and right behind the intake manifold is another "splice" in the line. It connects to a fitting then out the other end, check for leaks there. Follow the line all the way under the airbox and to the Slave Cylinder, check for leaks at that fitting.

2. As far of the loppy idle, check the TPS or IACV.

As far as the ECU goes, if it's a stock DX (D15B7) it should have the P05 (correct me if I'm wrong anyone), ECU. If it's not P05, it's P06. You can lift the passenger side carpet and look at the ECU mounted to the kick panel.
