Pedal to the floor = clutch disengaged
Pedal up off the floor = clutch engaged

Try adjusting the idle speed and make sure the IACV is clean. If it quite suddenly dies right when you push the clutch pedal, in a repeatable way, that suggests a thrust bearing is toast.

Hi im having the same problem when the car is warmed up as soon as a press on the clutch it wants to shut off and at times it shuts off and you don't even feel it.
