Is there a way to adjust the clutch on a T10 transmission. My clutch is either is shot or it needs to be adjusted.

the linkage going to the throw out lever may be worn out. all the way from the clutch pedal to the lever.

Short answer is, yes, there is an adjustment rod on the clutch. |

Yes, thats what I was wondering when the clutch starts to wear if there was an adjuster ro compensate for the wear. Its going to get replaced soon anyways.

When the new motor gets dropped in. The new clutch is going to be installed at the same time. I am looking to prolong it before the new motor is ready.

There is an adjustment on the clutch linkage rod. This doesn't adjust the clutch unless you've done something wrong adjusting it during setup; it should have ~.5" pedal free-play and then you're done for the life of the clutch.

Ah crap, maybe I can mess with that adjustment and just get by until the new motor is ready.

There is no wear compensation adjustment. It's not drum brakes. If it slips it's through
