Hydraulic clutch hose busted? 700 1990

Hi all,
Well now my clutch went out ;-( (My truck's starter relay went out last
week and I was laid off at my job!) Needless to say, I have to try and get
this one done myself since there is no funds.
I will get a book from the library tomorrow. Meanwhile, I'm pretty sure
these things have hydraulic clutches? (Its a 1990 740 gl, 5sp). The clutch
goes all the way to the floor w/o any resistance and there seems to be some
fluid dripping on the ground so I think maybe a hydraulic hose busted? Last
time the clutch went out three years ago there was smoke billowing up and
it obviously burnt up. I had it replaced to the tune of $600. Since there
was no smoke or anything like that this time, I'm hoping its just a hose or
something. What do you fellas think? Thanks ahead of time!
Jim
