Where do you add clutch fluid on a 97 Saab 900 SE?

The pedal dropped to the floor yesterday after I started my car. When putting the car into first gear, a loud thump/thud sound was made and the clutch dropped to the floor

The pedal feels 'spongy on my '97 Saab SE Turbo'; the car does stop, eventually, but only when you put the pedal to the floor. This is a constant, not just an intermittent problem. I've bled the lines and...

If the master cylinder is bad, the pedal will sink under constant pressure. When the booster fails, it usually leaks vacuum and you can hear it. Do you have either of these symptoms? If not, check to make sure your booster is getting vacuum from the intake manifold. It should let off a bunch of vacuum when you pull the hose out of it.

97 Jeep TJ sport - Clutch Pedal has gone limp

It's possible your clutch fork broke. Also, check to see if it's a hydraulic clutch. You could have a leak in the hydraulic system. Both would cause your clutch pedal to go to the floor.

How do I replace the clutch in a 1996 Saab 900 SE?

Check the fluid level in the clutch master cylinder What you describe is that you cannot disengage the clutch when you step on the pedal. This occurs if you are low on fluid or the clutch release bearing has collapsed. If the bearing is bad, it should have made noises before this. Let me know. I will check back. Moe

Clutch fluid leak

the 900 uses the same reservoir for both brake and clutch; it's in front of the firewall on the side of the pedals, immediately visible when you open the hood. Milky plastic, with a screw top; max and min levels marked by lines.

clutch leaks can be at the slave cylinder in the clutch, which will likely cause slipping clutch; at the master cylinder, which may show as fluid inside the car; or in line between them (runs from master cylinder at firewall to front of engine, where the clutch is located).

Look for leaks on ground and relate to location above leak in engine bay
