master clutch cylinder?

Alright well a couple weeks ago I would press the pedal for the clutch and every once and a while it would go right to the floor with no resistance and it would not engage the clutch, I would pump it and all the sudden it would start working again. Also the clutch would release while i had it pushed in while in gear. Now it has stayed like that. I think its the master cylinder or the slave but I am just learning about cars and am not sure. There was no leakage of brake fluid.

Bleed it. If that fixes it, keep an eye on it. Either way, you may have a leak somewhere, so watch for fluid or air escaping.

your gonna destroy your transmission bro. you do have a leak and since you mentioned that "There was no leakage of brake fluid." then I know your in serious trouble.

Your clutch and brakes are two completely different things man. you have to check the clutch fluid resivour and see if its drained.
I would recomend changing out both the slave and the master at the same time. if one goes bad the other usually follows.

Not always. My slave died and its been 30k miles and my master is still good.

When i said there is no brake fluid leaking I meant that about the brake fluid in the lines for the clutch and the resivor. I thought brake fluid is waht is used for the clutch as well
