think clutch gone i think was created by benji

going down road change gear let clutch out she revs up till 3000 then she goes down and then speeds up. was on back road so i stopped and put her into first and let clutch fully out and she didnt stall. can u adjust the clutch or anything dont like the prices of the clutchs.

maybe someone was right towing is abit hard on the clutch.

The clutch does adjust at the cable where it goes into the bell housing.

If there is 1/2" free play in the pedal it is adjusted right.

If it has been slipping a while you need a new one.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

I hope that was on a private road or race- track, 'cos obviously you wouldn't go and do something that daft on the public highway would you????

Seriously though, the Jimny is susceptible to side winds even at legal speeds. If you want a car that can race dudes in Golfs and sit at 90 I think you've bought the wrong one!!!
