my clutch was slipping for a week, then i adjusted my clutch. it drove normal for a couple of days. On the freeway it started slipping real bad then wouldnt move. I towed it all the way to my house. I feel pressure when i push down on the peddle. I still have to push down on the peddle to start my baby but I can throw it into any gear and take my foot off the peddle and it will stay on and not stall. Is it my clutch or my transmission please help.

Yea, its the clutch. I'd check your rear main seal when you replace it. Look for grease and grime in the clutch/pressure plate assembly and oil/grease around the crank.

You will always have to depress the pedal when starting unless you bypass the switch on it.

yeah it sounds like the problem i had. It is the clutch. did you smell anything?? when you stopped moving?? i smelled something horrible and thought the transmission was dead. I then took off the transmission to find that the clutch disk material was all over the place. clutch gone
