TRY THIS I BET IT'S YOUR PROBLEM

Neutral Safety Switch

• Loosen the screws on the neutral safety switch.
• Remove the switch.
• Reverse the procedures to complete the installation.

Clutch Start Switch
CAUTION
Before replacing the clutch switch or any component connected to the vehicle's control computer, disconnect the negative cable from the battery.

• After replacing the switch, slowly work the clutch pedal and note any unusual noises or interferences with pedal movement.
• If the switch is adjustable, make sure the clutch pedal height and push rod (free) play are correct.
• Then check the release point of the clutch.
• Begin by engaging the parking brake and installing wheel chocks.
• Start the engine and allow it to idle.
• Without depressing the clutch pedal, slowly shift the shift lever into reverse until the gears contact.
• Gradually depress the clutch pedal and measure the stroke distance from the point the gear noise stops (this is the release point) up to the full stroke end position.
• If the distance is not within specifications, check the pedal height, push rod play, and pedal free play.
• If the distance is correct, check the clearance between the switch and the pedal assembly when the clutch is fully depressed.

• Loosen the switch and adjust its position to provide for the specified clearance.

Your clutch on your Echo is hydraulically operated. There are 2 cylinders, one is connected to the clutch pedal, and the other is on the transmission clutch release arm. Hydraulic fluid operates the clutch. With this system, there are no adjustments. If your clutch is "slipping", a replacement may be in order.

Sounds like the clutch through out bearing might be bad.Is it hard to shift?Does the pedal come up high befor the clutch engages?

Sounds like the clutch throwout bearing is going bad. Not an expensive part but the transmission has to be removed to fit the part.
