Clutch pedal, no pressure. I don't see any fluid leak. Please help!

[bam099]

So my Integra sat for months, I was traveling, and when I came home to try and drive it there was no clutch pressure. I don't see anything that leaked but I have no idea what it could be. Should I just try adding fluid? What type of fluid would you recommend? I'm wondering if it's a master and/or slave cylinder but if they went bad would I have to see the fluid leak out?
I'm able to push it all the way to the floor and start the car but I can't switch gears unless grinding it in and the second I let off the clutch a little it stalls immediately.
Any help is appreciated and I'm sorry if this is a duplicate, I searched but couldn't find an answer. TIA as always

There's a switch at the very TOP of the clutch pedal hard to see... That switch is a position sensor in relation to the clutch pedal only... not actual operation of clutch.. which makes sense as why you can start the car.

If you've got a friend check to see if when you push the clutch pedal if the slave moves..

Also check under the floor and ensure clutch pedal is attached to the master.. Make sure it's not leaking fluid out of the clutch rod connected to the pedal. If you've never changed the fluid I'd probably go with DOT3 to top it off.. IF you want to try bleeding the clutch you can bleed it out with DOT4 brake fluid..

If you do have a friend that can help... have them push the pedal down while you watch the clutch slave and ensure movement. Might be a good idea to pull the boot back but you should still see it stretch regardless.

Try everything else before you start bleeding the system. Some more information about whats happening and what you've already looked at will point to further steps.

You are awesome thank you so much for the advice. I will try those steps and see.... And then bring some DOT3 just in case when I work on it.

There should be two bowls, reservoirs right up on fire wall drive side. Larger is brake and smaller is clutch..

What year / model is your teg?
