Most likely your brake master cylinder has gone bad. You need to get a new unit with the reservoir from say eeuroparts or Sobstory. Undo the two large metric nuts holding it to the brake booster and the two flare nuts holding the metal brake lines. Pinch off the fluid line to the clutch master cylinder and pull the line off the reservoir. Replace with new unit. Remember to clip off the piece of plastic on the reservior nipple feeding the clutch master cylinder otherwise it won't get any fluid. Then you'll need to bleed your brakes as you've introduced air into the lines. The brake booster is the black round object that the master cylinder bolts onto.Yours is probably ok.
