Bump.
I believe it's the clutch push rod adjustment.

Badly adjusted clutch push, will make the clutch slip and the revs will rise, not drop, as you stated in your first post.  This would make the drive or power fall but the engine revs increase.

Did the engine revs rise or fall?

Retrospectively, i think they only rose - i think perhaps the first time I noticed the fault until I had accelerated off and saw the revs drop drastically.
Added into this, the clutch appears only to be slipping at the peak of the torque curve and hasn't dropped off since the first time.


Thanks also for the input - I replaced the fuel filter so thanks for the heads up with that.
