how do i know when my clutch is going out - Toyota Tercel

Question:

I have a 1993 Toyota Tercel, how do I know when my clutch is going out. and about how much will it cost to replace it?

Answer:

If you try to accelerate in 3rd or 4th gear the engine will rev and there will be a burning smell. If the clutch pedal is grabbing high it is usually not good. The clutch kit is about $150 to $175 in the after market. You are looking at about 5 to 6 hours labor, times your local rate usually about $80 to $110 an hour.
