Talking SOUNDS LIKE,.....

Sounds like u have a bad clutch slave cylinder.The slave is on the back drivers side of the engine,its held on by 2 10 or 12mm bolts,and the clutch fluid line.Take it off,pop off the rubber on top,and look inside u should see a round piece of rubber(or whatevers left of it).If the rubber is shot or wont slide freely,you need a new CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER.They cost about $50-$75,and take all of 15 mins. to change.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!
