My mechanical knowledge is limited. The clutch pedal goes all the way to the floor when depressed and does not return to the starting position. You can pull it back by hand and it will stay there until you press it again. There's very little resistance when pressed. The fluid level in the master cylinder decreases but I can't see a leak anywhere. I keep adding fluid to the cylinder but it keeps leaking out. What could be causing the pedal to stay on the floor?

Where is it leaking at, is it at the clutch master cylinder? If its leaking you gonna be losing the hydraulic pressure that will cause it to go to the floor-

Thanks for your help! I found the leak (and replaced the master cylinder) and it seems to be working okay now.
