My clutch pedal has about one half to a full inch of slack in it. I know that my car has a hydraulic clutch so it can't be a cable that is loose. it doesn't worry me very much because every gear still engages but I worry that the clutch may be wearing out because today I put the car in 2nd gear from 1st coming around a turn (albeit under full throttle) and the clutch slipped until I let off the gas pedal. This has happened more than once in the past as well. (Apologies for the run-on, I'm dictating on my phone)
My question is, are there any bolts in the pedal assembly that I should tighten, or am I looking at a new clutch?

 

There are a few things you can verify and check...then adjust. Do you have a service manual for this car.

 

A Honda dealer service manual? No. I have a Haynes though~

 

year/engine ???

 

Oh, sorry about that. F22b2, 1994.

 

1. Loosen cruise control clutch pedal switch or adjusting bolt locknut and back switch or bolt off until it no longer touches clutch pedal, Fig. 1.
2. Loosen master cylinder pushrod locknut and turn in or out until specified clutch pedal stroke and height have been obtained, then tighten locknut.

a. Clutch Pedal Stroke: 5.61 - 6.00 inches
b. Clutch Pedal Free Play: 0.35 - 0.59 inches
c. Clutch Pedal (un-depressed) to floorboard: 7.24 inches
d. Clutch Pedal (fully depressed) to floorboard: 2.90 inches

1. Turn clutch pedal switch or adjusting bolt in until it contacts pedal.
2. Turn another 1/4 - 1/2 turn further and tighten locknut.
3. Loosen clutch interlock switch locknut and measure clearance between floor board and clutch pedal with clutch pedal fully depressed.
4. Release clutch pedal 0.59 - 0.79 inch from fully depressed position and hold.
5. Adjust clutch interlock switch so engine will start with clutch pedal in this position.
6. Turn another 1/4 - 1/2 turn further and tighten locknut.
