Can I adjust clutch tension??
I broke my clutch cable today on my lunch break 
. Just wanting to know if there is any way to adjust the tension of the clutch, because it is extremely stiff. I can't even pull the clutch arm up by hand... Its ridiculous... TIA.

Just about to. Just thought I would do some research before I jumped into it.
If you're thinking of adjusting the cable, I know about that. I need to know if I can adjust the tension on the clutch/clutch arm itself.

Buy a weak street clutch and not a good performance clutch.
The springs and stuff on a good pressure plate make it difficult to actuate by hand.

But should it be breaking the stinking cable?? Its a Clutch Masters stage 3 clutch, but still. I shouldn't be shredding clutch cables because of it.

Before my clutch cable broke, it was stiffer than hell, once it broke I bought a new one from Acura and now my clutch pedal is easy.

Re: (I8ayellowcrayon)
Before the cable snaps,it starts to "fray"..
individual strands start to snap as it becomes
weaker..The loose strands then tend to bind up the cable inside..
