My clutch is slipping on my 1993 toyota truck. Are there adjustments I can make myself. I am fairly handy, but not a car repair expert.

-Possibly time to replace new clutch.

Good luck

It's a hydraulic clutch, so you can only adjust the screwed on connection from the master cylinder to the clutch lever. No adjustment for slipping. You clutch is worn out if it's slipping

that a fair price. difficult to do if you dont know what your doing

No it is a self adjusting hydraulic type. If it slips or the pedal has no play the clutch disk is worn out.

If this is a manual transmission and you get slippage at acceleration, then your clutch is slipping.

An adjustment might help a little bit, for a while, but I think I'd prepare myself for having the transmission pulled and the clutch replaced.

The clutch assembly is made up of 4 main elements: (1) the flywheel (bolted to the rear end of the engine crankshaft), (2) the pressure plate bolted to the flywheel (a spring loaded device that applies pressure to the clutch disc), (3) the clutch disc (sandwiched between the flywheel and pressure plate) that connects, via friction, the engine to the transmission, (4) the throw out bearing, which pushes against the fingers of the pressure plate to release the clutch disc engagement.

I'd seriously consider having some one do this for you....having to remove the transmission is not something for the faint of heart. Serious injury could result if the transmission were to fall on you while pulled back from the engine bell housing.

Oh, and another thing...I'd replace the pilot shaft bushing while I was in there.

If you really want to do this yourself, then go to your local auto parts store and purchase a vehicle specific repair manual. It should outline the steps specific to your car.

Remember....be very careful!

U CAN DO THIS JOB YOURSELF, BUT U WILL NEED ALLOT OF EQUIPMENT AND PREFERABLY A FACTORY REPAIR MANUAL.

There is an adjustment for the clutch pedal under the dash where the push rod goes thru the firewall. There is only aprx. 1/2" of adjustment so be careful when making an adjustment, if your clutch is slipping then you need to shorten the throw of the push rod.

the clutch is hydraulic and self adjusting, if it is slipping then it is time for a clutch, the sign of a worn clutch is the clutch engages when the pedal is near the top of its travel when u let it out

Do you have to add fluid every so often?

You car does not have an "adjustable" clutch. The Corolla uses a hydraulic clutch. The action of the hydraulics eliminates the need for adjustements. If the clutch is slipping, you may need to replace the clutch.
