I have a 1993 mazda mx3 gs my clutch has no resistance and goes right to the floor. the rod at the side of the engine is flopping around.no fluid is leaking out it just feels like the linkage has come apart! long story short i have no clutch!! any ideas??

check the slave cylinder adjustment as normally there is no adjustment on the piston rod
There should be about 1/4 " free play between rod and throw out arm
the pivot bolt for the throw out arm should never be adjusted
what you have indicates air in the system or a faulty clutch master cylinder
you can get the clutch slipping indication if the compensating port in the master cylinder is blocked which holds the fluid in the system and keeps the clutch from fulling engaging
no resistance is air in the system and that can be from a faulty master cylinder

clutch is not disengaging when pedal is pressed
no hydraulic fluid
slave cylinder leaking
clutch master cylinder failure
air in system
clutch cable broken
take it to a clutch and brake specialist shop
not a clutch problem

Hello, try opening the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder, leave it open, pull the pedal up and then pump the pedal down and pull it up repeatedly until you feel some pressure, close the valve and try bleeding the rest of the air out in the normal manner.

keep you fluid level above 3/4 full- assuming you have a hydrolic clutch- unhook negitve battery cable remove rubber cap from bleeder screw on the release cylinder.place place a bleeder tube over the end of the bleeder screw.sumerge other end in a jar thats half full of hydrolic brake fluid.slowly pump the clutch pedal fully and let return slowly several times requires two people while pressing clutch to the floor lossen bleeder untill fluid comes out then close keep repeating this while keeping an eye on your bleeder tube jar as soon as you see no more bubbles close the bleeder screw and again make sure to keep an eye on resivor to remain 3/4 full or will get air in the line and have to start over. this part should be located on the tranny this is for hydrolic bleeding system refure to your owners manual for your type and location of your clutchrelease slave cylander.

your best bet is to purchase service manual from Autozone, Advance, auto parts stores. They handle Haynes & Clymers manuals (they run about $10) or Amazon, Barnes & Noble. I checked online and you're right it's a mystery why the Mazda forums lack that info...

You can have a dealer do it. or you can buy a programmer that does it or you can unhook your battery for about 30 minutes and that will do it. Hope this helps you.

Was the fluid low? Does the pedal have any resistance? does it feel normal? Did it happen all of a sudden? Does it shift into gear with the engine off? You say it doesnt shift into gear, but does the shifter move into gear or not? Or it does and the truck wont move? Sounds like maybe the SLAVE CYL isnt operating? leaking? theres more questions to answer.

the transmission dip is located under the hood and with a funnel you put the transmission fluid in and remember to keep checking while the engine is running warm because it does tend to expand and you want to make sure you're right on the line when you see the red fluid on the stick.

Either your belt broke to your alternator, or your alternator went out.

Well it is an eletric fan. Check all connections, and relays
