While driving I was shifting gears, but I noticed the smell of when I was pressing to much of the gas but then I wasn't getting any grab of the gears and I'm pretty sure I burnt the clutch out. This my first five speed.

Good afternoon,

Yes, it definitely sounds like you burned up the clutch.

It will have to be replaced.

I attached a YouTube video for you to view of removing the transmission to access the clutch.

Still need a bit more details on removing the transmission. I have checked to make sure no bolts are still in and disconnected wiring.
