First, locate the fluid leak:

Inspect the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder (picture 1). When my clutch master cylinder failed, fluid leaked all over the carpet below the clutch pedal. Also check on the firewall side. If you don't see fluid around the clutch master cylinder, look around the slave cylinder, and then the lines connecting the master and slave cylinders. The location of the leak tells you the component to replace.

Pictures 2-4 show how to replace the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder, and also how to adjust the clutch pedal.

sounds mainly like what a slave cylinder does, bet its leaking everywere, just replace it and your brake master so tehre both brand new and bleed the brakes

sounds to me like ya just ran outta fluid....
fill it up and bleed the clutch cylinder........ and then see if you see where its leaking...
another thing make sure the clutch is moving freely and goes all the way back in...

on my other truck the rubber brake line hose collapsed on one side and it held the brake pressure which kept that brake engaged and draging hardcore!
and the clutch has the same type rubber flex hose. it could be colapsed and it could also be swelling.

i know when i bleed my clutch it completly droped out so it could be something blown... BUT i would try the cheap bleed way first...

ya if fluid is coming out of it sounds like it blew..... you need a new clutch slave cylinder or what ever its called..... its what works the clutch, same setup like on rear brakes... it pushes the clutch fork. i dont think it would cost to much and realy easy to swap...
