I just bought a '90 a 2 months ago. This is the first car i've owned that 
has a manual tranny. How would i know if the clutch is going (gone?). It
has 40K miles. I've heard that i should be looking out for slippage 
after releasing the clutch - which i'm not getting. A clutch at 30K sounds
like something that should be covered under warrantee!


thanks much,
