I don't think swedecar is refering to the clutch disc wearing out or some other problem caused by poor technique. I believe the stiff pedal is caused by the throwout bearing, its pivot and slider tube getting all cruded up and increasing friction. You wouldn't notice this with a hydro actuated clutch but the increased load required to push the pedal is just too much for the cable. The pieces in the self adjuster are little tiny plastic guys that certainly don't look up to the job.
Really stupid of Saab to go from the hydro clutch on the OG cars to a much more inferior designed cable clutch on the NG cars.
