Need instructions on replaceing clutch cable 2008 Mazda 3 4dr

you may have to be more specific as to the model mazda you have as all my information says that only canadian mazda utes had a cable clutch
All others run hydraulics.
If you have a problem with a cable clutch then I would be not adjusting it but replacing the stretched cable.

The clutch assembly has to be disassemble to do so.Click the link below to replace it yourself:

Clutch Cable Replacement The clutch cable provides a means to "break the drive" between the engine and the wheels. The engine spins constantly, but the wheels do not, so in order to stop a car's wheels without turning off the engine, the wheels have to disconnect from the engine. When the clutch pedal is pressed, the cable disengages the plates, allowing the driver to shift gears or coast without killing the engine.
A failing clutch cable may make the clutch pedal difficult to depress. If the clutch cable fails, the clutch pedal may remain on the floor and not return to its normal position.
To replace the clutch cable, disconnect it from the clutch pedal (usually inside the vehicle) and from the release mechanism or cable attachment that operates the clutch assembly (usually at the transmission beneath the vehicle). A new clutch cable is then installed and adjusted. (The specifics vary according to the vehicle and range from straightforward to very difficult.)

Instructions

1. Remove the Old Clutch
   • 1Verify that your vehicle's clutch is the source of your problems and not the pedal-arm bushings, activating cables or the slave-master cylinder.
     
   • 2Unhook the positive battery cable, the clutch cable or hydraulic slave cylinder to get the transaxle ready for easy removal. Eliminate anything that may hinder your efforts, including exhaust pipes and the speedometer.
     
   • 3
   • Secure your car in a safe position before jacking up the front end.
     
   • 4Stabilize the engine with a jack below the oil pan. Remove the transaxle by undoing at least one engine mount.
     
   • 5Separate the engine from the transaxle by removing the bolts that surround the flywheel bell housing.
     
   • 6Push the transaxle away from the engine until the input shift clears the pressure plate.
     
   • 7Disengage the bolts surrounding the pressure plate and take it and the clutch disc out. Check to see if the flywheel's friction surface is scored, checked or has hot spots. Remove, machine and reinstall the flywheel, if needed.
     
   • 8Examine the pilot bearing (bushing) located at the flywheel's center to be sure the needle bearings are lubricated and that there's no galling. Also look for any oil leaking around the rear main engine seal.
     
   Replace the Clutch
   • 9Follow the instructions for replacing your car's clutch carefully to avoid having to remove the transaxle.
     
   • 10Check that the transaxle's input shaft isn't leaking; replace if needed.
     
   • 11Take out the flywheel and the old seal and install a new seal.
     
   Install a New Clutch
   • 12Clean the crankshaft flange before putting in the flywheel. With the flywheel on top of the flange, secure the bolts in a star formation to the specified torque for your vehicle.
     
   • 13Install the clutch disc and pressure plate. Prior to putting in the transaxle, attach the new release bearing to the release fork. The fork should move freely.
     
   • 14Hoist the transaxle into position and move it forward until the input shaft glides into the clutch disc's spindled hole. Do not apply force.
     
   • 15Reinstall any bolts or mounts that were removed to replace your car's clutch. Grab the transaxle, release the jack and lower your vehicle.
     
   • 16Consider replacing your car's clutch cable. If you don't replace the cable at least adjust it for the right amount of free-play.
     
   • 17Confirm that your clutch's self-adjusting action is performing correctly by depressing the slave cylinder's piston into its bore.
     
   • 18Drive your car to be sure your clutch is working properly.
     

neither
you need to replace the clutch master and slave cylinders or the cable
there is air in the system from failing slave cylinder

adjust clutch. check clutch pads, release bearing, pressure plate.

it might be very difficult if you have no idea how the clutch actually works.
if only the cables, that's easy.
but if the whole clutch assembly, you may need special tools.
and if you're the only to do it, you might get confused.

wow nice car you got sir!
i can't even afford to have one.

yeah.. its very difficult and it needs special tools and it can only be fix at your nearest service center

yes it is very difficult to replace a clutch. you will need to bring down your transmission and insert it at it's front before putting it back to the engine.
