1) Remove the computer - in the engine compartment the rectangular black box on driver's side. It is held in place by 3 nuts, two are fairly easy to revove the third is hidden by a bracket and can be a bit tricky to grip when removing and re-installing.
2) Carefully move (slide) the computer and its' cables out of the way by lifting up and then toward the center of the engine compartment.
3) The (small) clutch master cylinder should now be visible. The cap is twist off but if it hasn't been removed for a long period of time you may need to use slip grip plier to gently twist to get it started. The process is slightly complicated by two rather inflexible cables which run directly over the cap.
4) CAREFULLY twist off the top and insure not to damage the rubber boot which extends into the reservoir. The boot must come out.
5) There are two fill lines on the reservoir noticeable with the cap and boot removed..one indicates full and the other indicates add. Use recommended clutch fluid. You may add the fluid using a very small funnel or bottle with a small orfice. Usually you don't need to add much...in most cases just small drops until the reservoir is filled just BELOW the full mark on the reservoir. If you overfill it when you replace the boot and top the fluid will overflow. The process can be trial and error.
6) Operate the clutch. The pedal pressure should be back..if not recheck the fluid level. If you lose fluid regularly after the car sits you may need to changle the clutch slave cylinder which may be beyond the limit of a do it yourselfer.
7) Replace th car's computer being careful with that third retaining nut.
