Clutch problem

I have an 87 chevy s10 4 cylinder manual trans. With about 170,000 miles on it. Today, my clutch slipped badly and stopped shifting while the truck was on, but when I turned the truck off I could shift into any gear perfectly. The clutch pushes down very easily and comes back up. I think the problem is a broken, lost, or loose bolt on the clutch arm but I can't find the clutch arm. I know I have a lot of miles and I should probably get a new clutch since I haven't ever replaced it but, I don't think I need one. If you know where the clutch arm is or have any other suggestions please let me know.

Check the fluid in the clutch master cylinder. It looks like the brake master cylinder but is separate and works the clutch. After you have checked it see if there are any leaks.
