Your vehicle will go into high rpms and not move very much. Also clutch will start to "slip" as your driving it will just start to rev high.
Signs of a clutch going bad, When at a stop it is hard to shift into gear.When driving off from a stop the engine RPMs increase but the vehicle speed doesn't.
Slipping of the clutch and a peculiar smell are the first signs of a clutch that is worn out.
NO FREE PLAY AT TOP POSITION - CLUTCH SLIPS AND VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE TOO MUCH FREE PLAY AT BOTTOM - VEHICLE WON'T SHIFT CLUTCH DOES NOT RELEASE
Unless someone has done a custom hydraulic clutch setup on this vehicle- there is no clutch fluid. It is a cable clutch linkage on a stock vehicle. If it has been customized there will be a easily identifiable reservoir connected to the clutch pedal or connected to the clutch master cylinder by a hose.
At the clutch plate and the pressure plate.
sounds like maybe a clutch release bearing. what vehicle
Clutch disc is worn out. Not knowing what vehicle you have, most are hydraulically operated and there is no adjustment. Time for clutch replacement.

In a right handed vehicle the clutch is located at the left hand side. From left to right;;;;first pedal at left is clutch and second is foot break and the right leg pedal is the accelerator. In case of left handed vehicle they are in the same relative locations; accelerator on the right, brake in the middle, clutch on the left. Of course the vehicle will only have a clutch peddle if it is a standard shift.
have someone step on the clutch for you and see if the "folk" moves. if it does you'll know the cable is working fine.you may want to check the cable adjuster mounted on the pedal itself.a simple test to do and find out if the clutch plate is worn out. turn your vehicle on put it in gear and just let go of the clutch (with out hitting the gas)if the vehicle stays on your clutch disc is slipping and needs to be replace.if the vehicle dies obviously the clutch is ok.
