Sounds like clutch is slipping! That is what mine is doing, and now I have an Exedy HD Twin Plate sitting in our barn waiting to go to either Buschurs or Shep for a tranny rebuild and install the clutch! Just depends on who can get it don the fastest! They are both great guys! Bu yes, its your clutch!

When they (or you) take out your old clutch take a look at is and see if it was stock or what kinda clutch it was. since your car was bought used it will kinda give you an idea of how the last owner drove it.
