Clutch Linkage?

[Jeremoose]

Hey, my clutch has been acting really weird lately... Yesterday I thought it was gone entirely and it was slipping in all gears but one, today it wasn't slipping at all in any gear. After driving it for a short time it was slipping again but only in 3rd gear and up. Could this just be the linkage? Or is my clutch just plain and simply going?

Sounds like the clutch is going. Easiest way to tell is get it hot and see if it slips.

How is your clutch adjusted? It sounds like your clutch isn't adjusted correclty and you are getting pedal pump up (a 2g thing only), which is why it works fine some times & slips others. If so your engagement point is too far off the floor. Clutch should start to engage about 1/3rd of its travel off the floor. Stop should be adjusted so clutch pedal is level with the brake pedal. If you haven't adjusted a clutch before, this link should help you find the adjustment points (info about 3/4's the way down):

Thanks for all the responses, I'm hoping all it needs is an adjustment. When it's hot it doesn't slip sometimes, but sometimes it does; sounds like this pedal pump-up thing. I'll give it a try
