I've posted a message similar to this before. I have a 94 5 speed SC and for the past year I've had this problem where when I clutch to shift, usually above 2000 rpms, the revs shoot up about 500 rpms with my foot completely off the pedal, the moment I hit the clutch. The car doesn't lunge forward with the rpm jump it just freewheels and revs. Its very random, it seems like it only does it when the outside temp is above 40 degrees or so. It could do it all day long and the next day not at all. I had it stored this past winter and everytime I took it out, when it was really cold outside, it acted fine, but the first time I brought it out this spring it started doing it again. It'll do it one minute and act fine the next. I have a feeling its one of my fuel/air sensors, but I've replaced the MAF and TPS, and I'm thinking about replacing the IAC. However, the owner of the transmission shop that I work next to said my clutch was bad and was slipping. It doesn't seem like it would just act fine one minute and act up the next if the clutch was bad. If the clutch was bad shouldn't it start slipping when it heats up and stay that way until it cooled down. Desperate for some info on this.
