Default clutch pressure again?!!!

just wondering what pushes my clutch back to position after i press it in to shift. reason being is because i don't have any resistance after i push my clutch down. i was shifting to 5th and when i pushed in my clutch my the cable came off the quadrant because there was no tension. the haynes manual said there would be a resevoir for fluid next to the brake maser cylinder but there was no such thing. it is far from stock so i'm just wondering what else could give me pressure. i saw a grey box with a white thing connected to the quadrant that had a plug to it. could it be that?

your clutch is mechanical not hydraulic hence you do not have a slave cylinder or master cylinder for it.....if there is no tension...did the cable snap??? if not you may have a pressure plate issue..that is what creates the tension feel to the clutch pedal

the clutch cable do's not have to snapped in two. Look the cable over good and make sure the sheath is not split anywhere.
