do you still have the stock cable and quadrant? if so, the only adsjustments you have is pulling up on the clutch pedal.

any recent work on the car??? cables do stretch out over time and if you recently replaced the clutch then the cable will be longer than needed. time for a new one. MM probably has the best,

Are you sure you have the stock quadrant/pawl assembly? Is there an adjustment nut on the trans-end of the clutch cable (at the fork) or a firewall adjuster in the engine bay?
