Clutch Problem?

I am almost positive it is clutch related but i figured I would post it to make sure.  I was at the intersection of my street and the highway when my clutch pedal lost all pressure. It was just stuck to the floor, i managed to pump it a few times and got the pressure back but now everytime i push down on the clutch the car drop down to about 200 rpm,s and there is a loud squeeky noise.  I managed to get it back to the house but it was smoking horribly.  What do you guys think, is my clutch going out or is it the slave and master cylinder.  I need to get my car fixed as soon as possible becuase it is my daily driver.
 
Thanks,

Need to tell us what car.

You need to pop the hood and check the fluid reservoir for it. Its probably low. Fill it up, dont put the cap on... and pump the pedal continuously for at least 2 full mins. Then replace the cap and you should be good to go. If it happens again then its the master or slave cyl.
 
Depending on how many miles you have on your car... your clutch might be due for a change anyway. That burning is the clutch roasting. Not good. That puts 10,000 miles of wear on the clutch when it burns that bad.

The car is a 99 gst with about 135,000 miles,  I checked the fluid resevoir and it seems to have plenty of fluid in it.  I pumped the clutch already for about 5 minutes but it did not good.  The pedal has plenty of hydrolic pressure but everytime i push in the clutch the car immediately dies.  It even squeeks real bad when its just idling. 

Interesting. You sure your checking the right resevoir?
 
The car is on the original clutch?

Yes it is the correct resevoir.  I believe its the original clutch but im not completely sure. 

Im saying master or slave cylinder.

Master cylinder.

Master cylinder 100%

Look up under the dash to where the master goes through the firewall, any fluid dripping out? Jack the car up and pull back the boot on the slave, fluid in there? . As long as your doing one do the other right away to and get a SS clutch line from dsmparts. Changing the master is a b*tch because its so hard to get at. $170 in parts and your back on the road and just so you have a idea it took us about 5 hours to change the master/slave and do a SS line in my GST. Find someone who knows how to do it otherwise you will pay up the a$$ at a dealer

i would say slave cylinder....b4 you start replacing parts look for leaks...might just be a leak. take the boot off the slave cylinder and see if theres fluid coming out. check the lines from master to slave cylinder, might be a loose fitting somewhere.

I dont think it is loosing any fluid because the resevoir is full. 

Still, air might be getting into the lines.
 
Try just bleeding them. See what that does.

What is the proper way to bleed the lines.

i suggest getting a vacume hand pump from autozone. just hook it up to your bleeder fitting and pump away, just make sure your resevoir never goes dry.

i was thinking the lines need bled also.. here is how i was told( the hayens manual) to bleed the lines..
 
get a small hose that fits tightly on the bleeder tip. get a small conainter with about 1inch of brake/clutch fluid in it.. put the end of the hose in it. have a friend go pump the clutch then hold it down while you open the bleeder. make sure tehy keep it held down. close the bleeder tell them to let off the clutch..
 
repeat that untill you get a steady stream of just fluid, no air.. make sure to keep tabs on the fluid level in the resevuor because if it runs low it will just suck air into the lines. the hose and fluid in container is just a saftey thing incase your friend lets off the clutch when the bleeder is open so that way it sucks fluid in instead of air.. you dont really need it.

well....either way

i have never even heard of using a vaccum hand pump... does it like make it so you can do it with only one person or what?

I am just going to have the car towed to the shop and have them replace, well everything.  Im going to order a act 2100 lb clutch and light flywheel(What is a good brand flywheel?). As well as have them replace the master and slave cylinder and get ss lines.  I just dont have the time of day to personally work on the car right now becuase of my hours at work and i need the car fixed asap becuase it is my dd.  Figured I might as well take this chance to upgrade as well.

LOL thats the spirit

Hey sebba, do you still have that flywheel for sale.

well this sounds like a good choice as long as you have the money, but i dont know why you would do all that when you could at least try just bleeding it first

Im just looking for an excuse to upgrade .

hell since you don't have to ask for permission anymore screw it, fix it all up.

I plan too, lol. Did you just wake up.
