Default clutch isses :(

Alirghty, I really need some help....

I have a 1988 jeep cherokee chief 5 speed manie tranie and my clutch started acting up last week. It stalled while i was in neutral and wouldnt let me start it up again. But the clutch petal bounced back after i pushed it all the way to the floor. Checked the fluid level, there was none, poured some dot 3 in her, everything was fine for about 3 days. Then, it would stall in gear, and not let me take it out. Checked the fluid level, there was plenty! Now it stalls in every gear. i have noticed that it my rpms get below 1000, it dies. I have been stuck at alot of lights, and in some parking spots, so i really need some advice.

THANKS!

Id start by bleeding the clutch. If there really was no fluid in the reservoir then you've probly introduced air into the system. Not a huge job, though. You should also see if.you can find a leak in the system.
