well my cluth pedal is on the floor, i need to know which cylinder it is, or how i find out which cylinder it is thanks
 
Get under you car and pull the boot back from the slave, if there's fluid in the boot, the slave is bad. Get in your footwell and look up at the master cylinder where it comes through the firewall, if there's a bunch of fluid running down, the master is shot. If you have a lot of miles, just replace both of them and be happy. You're only talking about $150, at most.

or... that cheap rubber flex line near the accumulator that runs almost to the slave cylinder could have a leak... RRE makes a nice stainless steel line that would fix that.

You can pick up a rebuild kit for the master cylinder ( I paid $13.47 for mine 2 days ago.) A slave cylinder rebuild kit (not sure on price.) Or you just buy outright a new master and slave cylinder. The SS line from RRE is $20.

Did you notice any signs of failing hydraulics prior to this happening.? ie. Did you have to pump the clutch, or were you having problems getting it into gear.?

New cylinders and checking your hydraulic lines should fix your problem.
