By "clutch engaged" do you mean reving up?? If thats the case you might have an air leak.

If there is an air leak it would cause the motor to run lean... therefore revving up a bit.

ok i replaces the fuel lines, and took out my filter
still does it, but it only does it when the wheels r moving, if i push it down a hill the motor revvs high, or if i kick it with my foot it revs high, so thats y i dont think it is a leak.

Could you possible have a bent throttle linkage?? It would seem as only if you were moving because it may not be returning all the way to idle after you accellerate or brake...??

yeah thats fine, cuz if the truck is at a complete stand still and the motor is idling fine, i can push it down a hill without touching the throttle at all, and the motor will start to rev high. i think im going to put my dads whole motor and clutch bell and everything inthere tomorrow and see if it still does it.

is all the zip ties on your blue exhaust header on there because i had the same problem and there was an air leak so when i would go to slow down it would rev up and then idle.
