So let us get this straight. You got in your car, pushed the clutch in (to disengage the safety switch), started the engine, let out the clutch, and then pressed the clutch again to put it in gear; that's when you noticed no pressure?

I think it's obvious you should check for leaks along your clutch line. It sounds like you have a leak somewhere in you clutch line that allowed a rapid decrease in pressure.

Also check to see if fluid is spewing out of your cylinder wall on your slave cylinder and if the pushrod is on the clutch fork insert. Mine slipped off for some reason oneday. Not fun.

Did you look inside your car where the push-rod connects to the pedal assembly? It sometimes leaks inside the car as well.

This is a tech forum. Technically, there's a place for bitching about Mondays - it's the "Official what you did to your car" thread.
