I wonder if someone could kindley help. I have a problem with accelaration.
when I press the accelerator on my Mazda 323 1.8i, the speed goes up
slightly but then just ceases to increase and the rev counter just keeps
going higher. then i change the gear and the same thing happens again.
This happens in all gears. every time i try to increase my spead quickly,
it won't happen, the rev counter goes up the engine make heavy reving
noise bnut the cars speed does not increase. I would be grateful if you
could advise what the problem is , gearbox, or clutch, or something else?

Certainly sounds like classic "Clutch system" problem..

Sounds like a severely slipping clutch asking to be replaced.

Probably worn clutch linings; you should also smell burning asbestos (or
whatever they use these days).  Check the thing isn't simply out of
adjustment first; there must be some free play in the pedal.

Problem One--Mazda 323 1.8i--not a miata
Problem Two--Slipping clutch-Wornout?, Contaminated with oil or grease?

Sloppy thinking, ridiculous comparisons, and Gestapo tendencies.

No thinking, no sense of humor and idiotic top posting.
