RPM's ??

Whenever I shift, when I put my foot on the clutch, the RPM's rise. If I don't purposely take my foot off the gas first, it seems like the RPM's rise up when I put my foot on the cluth. But here's the thing, when I have my foot on the clutch, I can actually feel the RPM's rising. Like, the vibration from the clutch. I don't know what to think, because when I take the motor out all the way, and then shift, it feels like I have to take my foot off the gas a couple seconds before I hit the clutch, otherwise the RPM's jump.


Thanks for any help

Sweet, thanks for the reply. Only thing I know, is that my Jeep doesn't do it. That's why I asked.

Re: RPM's ??

also realize that i could do with the amount of clutch pedal travel taht is required.

i know that i can safely shift with the clutch depressed about 1"! so with that amount of sensetivity, you could be depressing the clutch a small amount, enough for it to start slipping, while your foot is still on the gas.
