I would say usually the clutch would start to slip...

If it's really bad, you will probably smell it too...

go up hill in 2nd or third at 2500 rpm.....

then FLOOR it. If the tach climbs and you don't increase speed corespondilngly then its slipping.

Pull the e-brake and let out the clutch...if the car is still running the clutch is gone
