Alright my clutch pedal engages way too early. I think it may be the reason why my clutch begins to slip when I drove the car more than 10 miles. I tried to adjust the master cylinder but the rod won't turn either way. Any help/advice on this would be greatly appreciated. Need to figure this out before it completely destroys my new clutch.

 

your clutch is bad get a new 1

 

It should not be bad as long as your not driving it hard...try bleeding the clutch if its a hydro. If its cable adjust the cable on it. that should work.

 

WOW very helpful. But not the right answer. Just put the clutch in. As in "It's brand new".

 

Sorry about not giving anymore info on the car. It's a 95 Honda Prelude. Brand new Exedy stage 1 Clutch, with a competition clutch 8lb. flywheel. Bleed the clutch properly before and after the Engine and tranny swap. Clutch pedal is still the same. Got under the dash to try adjusting it and the rod won't turn at all.

 

ok so when you push on the pedel....you dont have to push it i as far for the clutch to engage? i know with my stage two clutch was engaging earlier i had asked one of my buddys and they told me it was normal. i am not sure myself on why but it made for faster shifts so...

 

adjust your clutch pedal use a vise grip to turn the rod .

 

Any chance you installed the disc backwards? Stupid question but it's been done before

 

I actually had the exact same problem... Couldnt believe it cuz i tried absolutely everything, I must have bleed the system 15 times...and it turned out just to be a lack of grease on the shaft the clutch moves along...
When u take out ur tranny make sure that the clutch can slide freely all the way down the shaft. If you really have to force it, thats ur problem

 

I'll try adjusting it with some vice grips. Hopefully that will fix it. Otherwise I'll be stuck next week.
