The clutch pedal goes all the way to the floor. I assume the clutch is stuck. The brake pedal is not moving from the released position. I haven't had a chance to check any thing yet, I just nedd a place to start. All help will be appreciated. Many thanks. | | |

If you haven't already, get a reprint of the shop manual. Then you'll know where the return springs used to be. You might want to disconnect all the linkage to the pedals and see if they still pivot freely at the toeboard. | | |

Best bet there (if it is stuck would to replace it with one that is new or rebuilt OR find a decent master cylinder to rebuild.
I think your clutch may be stuck in the release position as well. Look at the linkage to see if it is connected.
