i have a 93 si and i dont like how the clutch pedal is. its like i have to let the clutch go all the way up for it to grab. is there a way that i can adjust it down lower to where i would only let my feet off it a little and it'll grab? please let me know how to do that and pics would be great!tia!!

 

sounds like you need a new clutch

 

You can indeed adjust the clutch. Get a light and get under the dash by the pedal assembly. Look at your clutch pedal. You will see an arm coming off the back going to the master cylinder. This attaches to the clutch pedal with a U hook deal and has a pin going through it with a cotter key keeping the pin from sliding out.

Take the cotter key off and knock the pin out, now if you look on the shaft you will see a lock nut on it, loosen the locknut and turn the shaft CCW or CW depending on which way you want to go with your pedal. Since your saying your clutch is grabbing with the pedal close the top of the travel, after you loosen the locknut turn the shaft CW, this will screw the shaft in and allow the clutch to grab at a lower pedal height.

Keep in mind when doing this that depending on how far you go with turning that rod you might have to adjust your clutch interlock switch and Cruise control switch if you have an EX with cruise. You just loosen the locknut on it and turn the switch in or out.

Its easy to do, most aggravating part is being in the floorboard to work on something which I hate. I adjusted mine when I put my new clutch in.

EDIT: Heres a diagram I found on google, it was to small to read so I saved it to my computer and got it a little better.

 

keep in mind that if you adjust the pedal too much, then your throw out bearing can be pushed into the pressure plate.

 

I didn't know that, thanks for the info

 

need a new clutch and pressure plate boss.....

 

thanks for the info you guys! especially to Matt93eg. that was the exact info that i needed. and no my clutch is good forgot to mention that i just changed it not too long ago but i wanted it to stick down more for a better launch cause i have long legs and to lift my leg that high is ridiculous! =D i shouldn't have to lift a leg only a foot and it should be going already.

 

it was pretty simple to do this task. email if you are attempting this and new some help.
