    umm, i would be looking at the hydraulics first...master cylinder, slave cylinder

    can you see any leaks

    you can do some minor pedal adjustments, remove the plate with six screws in it infront of the clutch master cylinder

    As above, look at hydraulics, as these are the most likely problem (look first for leaks, then bleed it - if this fixes the problem it will only be temporary though, and either master of slave or both will need to be overhauled/replaced. However, some models, probably including yours, are prone to failure of the clutch fork where it pivots on a round-headed post. This unfortunately is an engine or gearbox out job, although parts are relatively inexpensive.

    The system is self-adjusting, and there is no adjustment apart from setting up the system. Note, however, that I have encountered the nuts on the pushrod of the master cylinder coming loose and losing motion there. Check by removing the cover on top of the pedal box and observing movement - the trunnion the piston rod goes through should have no free play on the rod. If the nuts are loose, adjust so there is about 1mm movement before the piston starts to move, and lock.
