Default woke up to a DEAD CLUTCH!

i recently had bleeded my clutch on my dx hydro trany and it was working perfectly fine for a couple of days. then out of no where when i start my car for work today my clutch is dead to the floor. So i go check out the clutch cylinder and theres no more fluid. from a visual perception there seems to be no leaks or fluid near the cylinder area at all. could a leak somwhere else cause my fluid to burn up or something?? anyone help me

The clutch master cylinder in my car leaks through the firewall and onto the carpet by my clutch pedal... There is no where it is visually leaking other than that.

Look underneath the dash where the pedal goes through the firewall. Look here for leaks, if it's leaking there then it's the clutch master cylinder. Other place to look is at the slave cylinder on the front of the transmission. You may have to pull back the rubber boot that fits into the hole on the tranny to see if there is any fluid leaking.

If you still cant find any leak, just pour a bottle and dont drive the car..wait patiently to see where the leak is going.
