Ok so it has been a ongoing problem, when I am merging into traffic, really winding it out, the clutch will slip as I enter gears, then slowly catch. It's been getting worst and worst until now. If I'm in gear and hit the gas, rather than stressing the engine, the clutch will just slip really bad. I'm worried that when I go to school next week the mountains will finish it off. Does this sound like the clutch? Also any clutch system anybody can recommend? Money is low, so I'd like a upgrade, but can't go crazy.

You'll be fine driving it back just take it easy... I always did the clutch test in 4th.. and it always stalled.. you have to have one REALLY bad clutch for it to not stall. How does the peddle feel? Good and stiff or like your putting your foot into a bowl of thick oatmeal? Anywho my advice is to replace the clutch and pressure plate at the same time and have your flywheel resurfaced.. even if you get an aftermarket flywheel I'd take it to a shop to have them check that it's balanced and cut right. -------------------- 87 4runner DLX 22re, 5spd, 4.30gr, 4" lift, 30" tires, HID w/ Projectors, 6spkr + sub, custom exhaust, 94 celica leather seats, SR5 gauge cluster and clinometer. Future engine swap... possibly a 2jzge.
