when i shift my car and let off the clutch if i push the gas pedal down too far it sounds like i still have the clutch held down. also it takes forever for me to get up to any speed. i was just wondering if i had burned up my clutch or how bad the problem is for that matter.

Hi there,

It sounds as if the clutch is well over due for a change, make sure that the fly wheel is re machined and the thrust bearing is replaced as well.
