Clutch Slip - Adjustment
I parked my AE86 up last summer and didn't take it for a drive until a couple of weeks ago. I noticed the clutch is now slipping, as soon as I put my foot down at all it just revs up.
It has an Excedy Paddle competition clutch and before parking it up it drove perfect.
Does anyone know what I could do to check? Or anyway it could be adjusted.
Fluid reservoir is full.

You need to check for oil leaks around the bellhousing.. sounds like a leaking main crankseal to me.

Not likely, but the rubber hose to the slave cylinder, if it is old and hard could be restricting return flow to the slave cylinder. Do you have a return spring on the clutch arm. Is the slave cylinder push rod preloading the clutch arm. Or is the M/C rod not returning far enough in the master cylinder to release pressure. If none of these check out, you are probably going to have to pull the trans and inspect the clutch.
