If your clutch pedal disengagement point has been gradually sinking over time, it is not your adjustment that is the problem. It is your clutch hydraulic system that is failing. Check the fluid level in the clutch master cylinder. If you are lucky, it is just a slow leak and you can "pump it up" after topping up the fluid. Normally, as the clutch disc wears down after thousands of miles, you will get less and less play in the pedal. If you pull back the oval rubbercap on the slave cylinder and push hard forward with a finger on the clutch fork, you should have around 1/16" play. It is adjusted by turning the the little squarehead bolt (locked by a nut), opposite the slave.
Good luck!
