Clutch adjustment problems

[beansblacktsi]

Okay I just installed a rps stage3 6 puck in my 92 laser awd. I put in a new oem throw out bearing, clutch fork, and pivot ball. The problem is When Im not applying pressure to the pedal the fork is touching the pressure plate. IVe bled the system plenty and was wondering if I could fix this by adjusting the clutch would solve this?

You may have your master cylinder adjustment rod over adjusted. Babck it away from the firewall a little and see if that helps. And im assuming you meant your throwout bearing is touching the pressure plate

Well I adjusted the pedal so that the fork would be off the pressure plate put that made it seem like the pedal was far to close to the floor. Also the clutch pedal doesn't seem right, its really soft up(easier than stock) up until about an inch off the floor then it gets really hard but during this whole process the slave cylinder moves the same. I check my master cylinder and it had a drip on it so could a malfunctioning master cylinder cause these problems? I pulled the tranny and checked to make sure everythings installed correctly and it is.
Thanks

You may need to replace the master or slave cylinder. Also if you do a forum search you'll probably find better resolution. I see this situation on the forum more than once every week.

I have searched, If you could I would appreciate if you could show me some threads. Thanks

Just type in "clutch adjustment" or "clutch not disengaging" in the search box, that should give you pages upon pages of related info. Good luck and let us know what you figure out with it.

What shape is your clutch pedal assembly? Any play will make things rediculously harder and unexpected things can happen. Pull up on your clutch pedal with your hand or tip of your foot if it moves AT ALL You need it welded.

Sounds like the problem I was having. Adjust the master cylinder rod which is connected to the clutch pedal and it should fix the problem you're having
