The clutch master cylinder? Is it leaking brake fluid over the driver side carpeting?
If so, bad master cylinder, needs to swapped in with a new one. It's a two hour job. It's only a $50 part, but I recommend you replace the slave as well, for it is going to go bad soon as well.

You can take it apart - that fitting is your rear proportioning valve because you do not have abs.
Is that valve leaking?

yeah thats wats leaking the proportioning valve thingy lol Thanks special tool, i can see alot of fluid build up over an hour or so i suspect its from the valve to master cylinder connection or valve to line connection or the valve itself .. it makes my car smoke too after i get out after a hard drive white smoke comes out that side of the hood, where the fluid is dripping down onto the heat sheild/turbo etc

anything happen like this before??

Thanks alot guys
