i have a 97 saturn that has been running ok the engine seems to have enough power and it sounds like it is running fine but it is getting so that i have to rev more to start going and it will only go to 50 mph could this be related to the need to replacce the clutch or do i have to replace the tranny, also is there a way to replace the clutch without removing the engine

First of all thank you so much for your donation.So when your taking off you need more rpm"s?Also when you can only go a max speed of 50mph If you try to go faster does just the rpms go up and no speed increase?So you know you need a clutch?You don't have to remove the engine to replace the clutch you have to use a engine support to hold the engine up and remove the sub frame and transmission.
