(Apart from putting it into neutral without the benefit of the clutch , which wouldn't do the gearbox much good).

I wonder is that the real problem? If you had a hydraulic (clutch) fluid leak then you couldn't de-clutch and getting gears would not be your biggest problem but rather how to disconnect the engine from the driveline and stop the truck!

Tracey, you have a hydraulic clutch and this must be put right. When you press the pedal, you are pushing fluid from the master cylinder down a steel or flexible rubber pipe that connects to the slave cylinder on the side of the gearbox bell housing. The pipe work needs to be replaced, and for the life of me I can't understand why the garage didn't do it! Eventually you'll not get any gears at all and you'll be stranded.
