Question 96 s10 clutch to the floor w/ 0 pressure

Hey guys, I was wondering what could be the issue with my 96 s10's clutch.

I was driving the other day and all of a sudden I lost all pressure in the clutch and wasnt able to shift at all. luckily I lost it on my road and just drove slowly home in 2nd.

I got it home and tried putting DOT3 brake fluid in the clutch res. since this has happened to me once before, but it didnt work and the fluid just leaked out under the truck on the ground.

I checked the line and it isnt leaking into the engine so im Assuming its leaking in the casing (terminology?)

Any idea if this could be an easy DIY fix? I probably have every tool id need.

thanks alot.

If it has, and should have a dust cover on the bell housing (casing) remove it, and inspect. If you are having to add fluid, and no signs of leaks, you need to inspect this asap. The fluid will contaminate the clutch plate.
