reach down and pull your clutch pedal out towards you and see if it clicks. If so that might help. If not then the cable might need replaced with an adjustable one or a fire wall adjuster.

uuhhh,,, i would say double check the clutch fork,,, cable, and throwout bearing,,, you may possibly have to take the tranny back out and see what goin on in there.

did you replace the tob when you replaced the clutch,, and howd the fork look??

a friend of mine replaced his clutch once and found that his fork had actually warped, and was getting caught on the bellhousing!!

ears did you have your hands in there? Cause I would suspect that as the reason why its letting out like that...:)

How old is the clutch it maybe worn, how is your driving style?

well i dropped the tranny and found the spring had poped off the
TOB so we put that back on and put the tranny back in then we went to adjust the clutch cable it was fine but we adjusted it some but it still does it
