I had a similar problem going through Providence, RI the other night....I lost clutch action. I bleed the system, but only had a sucking sound and no fluid staying in the system. Noticed a puddle of brake fuild on the ground. I was in big trouble and had to devise a plan of action to get home. I got it home by shifting with extra muscle. When I had to stop, I put it in neutral, stopped the car, shut the engine off, put it in 1st gear and used the starter to take off again in gear. Drove it home about 35 miles away and only had to stop about 5 times. I found the slave cylinder leaking and disassembled it and found one cut through and another one rolled and not happy. This was an original Saab clutch assembly installed about 1 year ago. I installed a rebuild kit for about $7.00 and everything looks good again. If I can be of help in the future, email me. Good luck.
