Clutch Adjustment

My clutch doesn't engage til I push the pedal all the way in. Do I need to tighten or loosen the clutch nut.

Well your question is a little confusing.
When the pedal is "up" then the clutch is "engaged" and with the pedal "down" the clutch is "disengaged".
If you are having trouble disengaging your clutch(grinding gears or begins to move with the pedal on the floor) then you need to lengthen your clutch rod on the bell housing.
If you are having trouble with it slipping or the pedal has to be all the way up then you probable due a new clutch, but you can shorten the clutch rod and it will give you a a little bit more pedal.
