new clutch installed , now problems
 
ok, just put an act clutch in and all went well except I had to bleed the slave cylinder. So I tried it out for the frist time this morning and the clutch engages when I let the clutch pedal out like 1/2 inch! what did I do wrong?

You can adjust your clutch cable... follow it out of the firewall and where it goes into the tranny there is a little knob. tighten it up and you should be good..... or maybe it was loosen.. idk. try tighten first

You saying 1/2 is too much or to little.

And for the guys, his car doesn't have a cable, adjust the rod on the Clutch Master Cylinder.

I know the second my clutch raises from the floor, it's grabing (Clutch Specialties 6puck) but thats the way I like it, I over rev and ride out my shits when I get on it if it isn't set like that.

I tought mechanical was the only clutch that could be adjusted. I thought that hydralic clutches couldn't be changed. :-\

I know I can adjust my clutch petal, I've seen in in my honda service manual, but I wouldn't have though I had to adjust anything when I just replaced the clutch. And what exactly its doing is fulling engaging 1/2 out, almost like it is when you have a blown clutch. just catches really quick then goes.

That's how a new clutch grabs.

You just need to adjust the rod on the back of the pedal. Your old clutch probably didn't grab so close to the firewall because it was worn.

That's how a real Man's clutch grabs...right from the start...a ----- clutch grabs half way up...
You'll be shifting slow like that
