Bogging

1st check fuel filter, if problem is still there do fuel pressure/volume test. Make sure float level i carb is correct. Run Strong cleaner thru tank like BG's 44k with about 1/2 tank fuel in case there is obstruction in jets.
Do all above in that order.
As far as clutch way to check is to put at stop and put in 5th gear. Rev motor and let out pedal if it does not die then clutch is bad. rx7doctor
