Check your clutch pedal free play. Make sure there's enough. It should be 9 - 16 mm (0.35 - 0.63 in). Hold a ruler against the floor and up to the top of the pedal pad. Take a reading on the ruler at the pedal pad in the resting position. Now push on the pedal pad very gently until resistance is felt; at this point take the new reading on the ruler. Subtracting the two readings will give you the free play spec.
To adjust the clutch pedal free play, adjust the pushrod for the clutch master cylinder which is located under the dash at the top of the pedal assembly. The pushrod has a locknut which must be loosened. Now the pushrod can be adjusted.
If there's no freeplay, then the throwout bearing will spin all the time, thus wearing it out prematurely.
