No Clutch Tension

[ABuseO]

Forgive me for an obvious answer, but im not exactly a genius when it comes to cars.
Yesterday i was driving my car around no problem, but today i got in it to drive and the clutch had no tension whatsoever, and its not shifting without grinding. I had one idea its fluid, another idea is the throw out bearing is messed/broken.

Need help, thanks guys.

Sounds like a loss of fluid. Check your fluid level in the brake master cylinder. If it's down to the clutch hose level, then you have a leak somewhere. Look inside under the clutch pedal on the floor for fluid. That would be your clutch master cylinder leaking. Look under the bellhousing/engine joint for fluid. That would be your slave cylinder leaking. Doesn't sound like the throwout bearing, as they usually give you a lot of noise before they go.

Ok, well there wasnt any fluid in the car or outside on the ground, given it had 12 hours to do it, could have soaked into the ground by then, but i didnt see anything.

Did you look to see if the fluid level was low?

bleed the clutch system (you have to do it from the bottom if there is air in the system), if it is still soft, then it is something else.

Forgive me, where exactly do i check, like i said im a moron.

A hose goes to the clutch master cylinder from brake master cylinder fluid resevoir. In your picture, the hose runs at a 45 degree angle from the master cylinder and the  left end of the red wire connector is right over it. If the fluid level is lower than the hose, air enters the system. If it's low, you add fluid and then bleed it from the slave cylinder on the bell housing.
