CLUTCH PROMBLEMS / CAR IS STALLING
I have a 1997 Mazda Miata, 4 cyinder with around 85,000 miles. i recently have had some problems. i will have the clutch down all the way and im stalling out in first gear for example. then if im stopped at a light and im about to go the gears get jammed and i cant move the shifter into gear all while holding down the clutch. the only way ive been able to move it is by reving up the gas and putting it into gear then. yesterday i was stuck in traffic, when it started and it felt like there was no pressure with the clutch it felt too loose. now it doesnt really feel like that. ive been driving stick for years so i know its not me. todayit has been on and off but i still notice it rougher to switch gearsi also have not been driving as much today but theres got to be a promblem.any ideas? please!!! ask me if you have any questions? thanks

From my experience, you've got some broken or weak fingers in thepressure plate. Same thing happened to me in a Honda I owned... I even slid through a red light cause I couldn't get the car out of gear in time. *ticket by a local po-po*
Time for a new clutch!
