I have a 1993 prelude I just bought and the guy I bought it off just put a new clutch in it but I think he forgot to bleed it. It worked fine when I got it and one day I was driving it and it went all the way to the floor and stuck there. Now I have to push it all the way to the floor and its hard for me to put it in gear and when I shift into 2nd gear it grinds.

Hello,

When it first started did you try pumping the clutch pedal. If so did it pump up enough for the clutch to work.

Also did you look under the vehicle to see if there was any brake fluid on the ground or any signs of leaking around the Clutch Master or the Clutch Slave Cylinder also check for leaks along the line between the Clutch Master and Slave. And check the Clutch Master to make sure it is full. If it is full it is possible the either your Clutch Master or the Slave has gone bad. And it is a good idea to replace both at same time.
