what do u mean loosten it? make it grab higher or closer to the floor? if u want it to grab at the floor then make the bolt on ur cable bolt loose, if u want it to grab at ur knee's near the dash then tighten the ---- out of it but not to tight or it will be grabbing b4 u even put it in gear.

Pop your hood, follow the clutch cable (the one that goes to the arm on the transmission case) to a nut that will screw up or down. screw it up to loosen it. lefty- loosy, righty- tighty.

yes, you don't want too much free play in your cable or you will wear out your friction disc too quick- kinda like riding the clutch.

too tight and you will burn out the through out bearing. You need enough slack that the bearing isnt touching when released.

i beg to differ... ur saying the opposite... to tight and it causes friction and will cause it to wear out. loosten the bitch up and it wont touch for ---- till u push the bitch to the floor... love driving like that.
