Here's the deal. We installed the ACT 2100 clutch/pressure plate yesterday and everything went in smooth w/o a problem (had prior experience on changing clutch on hondas). After we finish the installation and start the car which its on the lift. The front wheels starts to spin freely. We had hard time getting in gear and it seems like the clutch is always engaging. We then read the yellow slip that ACT clutch comes with and it says that they found similiar problems on the 1st gen DSM that over the time, the clutch pedal assembly stretches over the time and needs to be "replaced?". I've done the following proceedures so far

-bled and add more clutch fluid
-replaced the tranny fluid

and i'm think that the problem could be.

(1)Pressure plate is mesed up (since I had the similar problem like this on my crx w/ ACT clutch)
(2)clutch pedal needs to be replaced like it should be...


Any help from you DSM guys would be great. Thank you in advance!
