that sounds like the self adjusting clutch quadrant. if you slide your seat all the way back and look up under the dash you will see a white plastic cam looking thing with teeth on it. thats probably not grabbing anymore, as do most of those dumb things on these cars. I would advise getting an aftermarket quadrant that is metal and non adjustable, and replace the clutch cable with an adjustable one while you are in there.
