Default Repost: Is my clutch gone?

I am sorry just noticed when I drove back home... not 500 rpm's more like 50rpm's.


When I'm going about 80mph and I floor it in 6th, the rpm goes about 500rpm's ahead and then comes back and pulls strong. Is this normal? I don't have any problems 1st-4th just 5th and 6th and only when my rpm's are a little low.

Default I am guessing your are chipped and if it is doing it on flat ground...

you need a new clutch and also wait till the weather gets colder, more slip.

Clutch isn't gone, but it's going.
