Re: Can a clutch be adjusted on a 1994 jetta-or do you...
1st there are no free downloads of service manuals these are very expensive and they don't give them away, next the clutch is hydraulic and is self adjusting, sounds like the clutch is worn out on your car.

The service and repair manual will provide you step by step help to locate and fix the problem easily and you will get the manual from the given link Home Toolsnyouhttps://toolsnyou.com
you adjust the clutch like this, using two spanners to undo the two nuts at the gearbox end of the cable,then tighten up the larger of the two nuts to tension the cable,now inside the car push the pedal down,and adjust the cable so that you have about an inch of play from the rest position to actual contact of the arm movement,then lock up both nuts to secure,start the car and check the operation,there should be no need to readjust if correct.
You will have to remove the ront suspension both sides to remove the drive shafts before you can start to unbolt the gearbox and lower it ,then replace the clutch .Best advice is to look for a online manual on this site and download it ,if you cannot find a jetta manual then a golf or seat ibiza or a skoda octavia will all be the same as they all use a VW road train
The linkage cable before the trans should have an adjustment nut on it.
This controls the fork assembly movement. adjust the linkage to remove
the pedal free play and this will also tighten the clutch.
so it engages at the end of the push or just when your foot is about to leave the pedal if it is all the way to the end when your foot is down to the floor this could mean that you have a leak in your slave cylinder or the clutch is just about to the end of its life. repair would be replacement.
take it back to clutch repair shop.. linkage is loose-out of adjustment/ clutch is not adjusted/bled or installed proper/ or internal transmission damage has occurred (syncros) .. good luck
The clutch cable for your vehicle is an auto adjust clutch cable... assuming it is using oem equipment. if you tension seems incorrect you may want to pick up this Manual adjust clutch cable http://www.germanautoparts.com/Volkswagen/Jetta/Clutch/39/11 the auto adjust ones tend to go out and ruin your clutch. the manual adjust is a direct swap out for the auto adjust. if you need info on how to install please reference this site http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1569293
