Clutch Slippage

[Chris86Lxi]

Ok guys, my clutch is like around 3 years old and its already slipping. I did the whole adjustment thing by turning that wheel lookin thing by the battery and it helped some but for some reason my 4th and 5th gear are still slipping some. Question is, am i turning it the right way. I turned it clockwise to tighten, this right? Do i need to keep turning it more? Any help would be good b/c i can't afford a new clutch right now.

thanks,

Chris

do tighten the cable... it should be loose! if u tighten it, it is like puting ur foot on the clutch pedal.

You need to adjust it so that there's approx. 3/4 - 1 inch of freeplay in the clutch pedal

it could be that it is too tight right now and that is why it is sleeping
losen up a little untill you have like 3/4-1" or free play before cluch starts moving with some force.
