If it is the clutch slave, and it has failed to the point that you have no
clutch, then it's Not an easy job anymore. You need that slave to compress
the pressure plate fingers enough to get the "special ring thing tool" into the fingers of the pressure plate. Saab makes a very pricey special tool/lever to deal with this situation, or you can do what I and others have done, which is to cut the slave in two in the car..... I've done this twice and I can tell you it's not fun. Use a Sawzall and it's a lot less ugly than using a hacksaw...ask me how I know.... I agree with the Master cylinder as a likely cause. Plus, it's not that hard to replace and not all that pricey. If there is no obvious fluid under the tranny I'd be surprised if the slave was gone. Good luck with this one.
