help.....Quick, like a bunny!!!

I've been having this problem where my brake pedal goes to the floor. And now I am having this problem where my clutch sticks and I have to manually pop it out, it slooowly rises when I unstick it. What could it be???

you must have mistaken me for someone that knows what he's talking about. Bleeder valve? Where exactly is that located in the master cylinder or slave?

Its on the slave. The slave is on the top of the tranny near the firewall.

If the bleeder valve or slave is leaking then there will be little to no fluid left in the clutch master cyl. Plus everytime you push in the clutch a small pool/river of brake fluid will be running down from under the car, until it is empty.

If you have fluid in the clutch master but you are still getting the pedal to the floor problem, you more than likely have a bad seal in either the slave or clutch master cyl. Time for a rebuild or replacement...

Talking

Pedals sticking is generally a sign of either no fluid in the system, or pressure/liquid leaks. In either case, you must check for fluid levels. Open your hood, and check for white round little boxes with grey caps (there are about 5 or 6). Two of them contain the fluids for brakes and clutch. Check the level (there is a Min and a Max line). You must be way below Min in both. Add fluid yourself, or take it to a gas station. If this continues, then you have a serious leak, which must be fixed by a mechanic (not too knowledgable, this is pretty simple)...
