I have a fairly new clutch on my S-10 (less than a year old) and I'm now having a problem with the clutch fully engaging. When I press the clutch to the floor it seems like it only partially engages and I have to somewhat force the transmission into gear.
This only happens after the truck has been runnin for a while... when the truck is hot.
Also, after stopping with the clutch engaged, the truck moves slightly and it feels like clutch is right at the engage/disengage point.

Is there a clutch adjustment I can make? Do I need to see a mechanic?

It sound's like your clutch isn't fully releasing when you push the pedal to the floor you say it happens when it's hot it sound's like a pressure plate issue.But you could also have a problem with your clutch master or slave cylinder.I would go get it check out before you damage your transmission.
