Possible clutch problems
1) hole where pedal and clutch master join together could be worn causing play and the lack of a high hitting pedal.
2) I have a loose piece of carpet on the driver side that sometimes creeps under the pedal causing a low hitting pedal. I pull it out from under and the pedal returns to normal.
3) possible worn clutch disc. Has it ever been replaced?
Possible shifting problem
1) worn synchros in the tranny. Time for a rebuild.
2) too thick a gear lube in the tranny. Does it get easier when the car is warmed up? I run 10w30 and others have used other products like Redline or a Honda synthetic with good success.
