I jumped in my car right now to go to the store, and when I went to start the car the clutch pedal went all the way to the floor with no pressure. I mean none. Car will still start but it is as if the clutch isn't even there.Any help would be greatly appreciated. 1999 CSVT 68,000 miles

It turns out that the brake system and clutch system share hydraulics through the brake fluid reservoir and that the reservoir was low. I added fluid and haven't had a problem since. 96 Contour SE Duratec V6 24-valve 2.5L ATX 108,000 mi.

Any ideas what this would run cost wise? Thanks for the help guys.
