As the title states, I started randomly loosing my clutch pedal today. Started gradually feeling dead pedal all the way at the top, with it flopping down, all the way until it only had like about 1 or 2 inches left to disengage at the absolute bottom; and it would engage like bare millimeters off the ground it felt like.

I checked to see if anything was leaking, as I have a GTO separate clutch fluid/master cylinder reservoir in the engine bay; and nothing was leaking. In fact, the clutch line was clean and the fluid was as full as it ever was. I started pumping the pedal with the reservoir cap off and it gained enough pressure to get me like 10 minutes home, with me limping the car as it began losing pressure again..

I didn't physically see anything leak and drip onto the ground underneath the car. I haven't checked, but I was figuring air somehow got in; maybe my master cylinder somehow failed, but my fluid is still there though(?); or something inside my transmission, like the concentric slave cylinder and release bearing support have melted or broke apart? Can someone tell me in what circumstances clutch fluid would still be completely there, if I'm losing the clutch pedal hydraulics??

I also removed the factory clutch pedal return/assist spring and rigged up my own DIY return spring, as I didn't like how the factory one would hold the pedal to the ground as you got it to the bottom of the travel. Thankfully I had my DIY spring and got rid of that factory one, or I would've been manually pulling the clutch pedal up to go anywhere at all, or needing a tow today most likely.
