Cold weather has a way of making clutch and brake hydraulics suddenly fail.
Especially if the fluid is old and has enough moisture in it to make ice
crystals.

Ok gurus, went out to show the van some love, (and to measure something),
took the key to start it as well.  Put my foot on the clutch and straight to
the floor, no resistance.  It is very cold, dark, and kind of immobilized in
some shoveled snow, hardcore diagnostics can wait.  No problems last time I
drove it, may 4-6 weeks ago.  Any guesses to trim the troubleshooting curve
for me?
