+?L$?y car to my mechanic awhile back due to an awful noise that turned 
out to be from the motor mounts.  While he replaced the mounts, he noticed 
that the clutch was adjusted wrong.  I was used to the clutch engaging close 
to the floor, and not towards the top.  He asked me if I grinded gears a 
lot, and I said the normal, only when its cold into second type of thing.  
Lately I noticed that i've been grinding into gear a lot more than normal, 
and also that I didn't like the clutch engaging far from the floor.  So I 
adjusted the clutch so now it grabs closer to the floor... O.K. so here's my 
question... can adjusting the clutch, so that it engages closer to the 
floor, actually reduce grinding? Because i've noticed a reduction of gear 
grind since the adjustment.  Could it be that you can actually push the 
clutch in TOO far?
   I'm just kinda confused on this.  Any insights are appreciated... maybe 
i'm just goin crazy.

P.S.  How long do most stock clutches last under normal driving?  What's the 
longest that a stock clutch has lasted?  And yes, my clutch slips, but only 
very slightly.
