clutch noise and disengagement issue

[97_4g63t]

For starters my tranny messed up a while back so I had it sent off and fixed. Clutch felt good but it had an autozone master and slave so I installed oem when I got the tranny back. Adjusted the clutch like jacks video described. Has a new oem tob also. Tob was loud but I was thinking it was because I didn't grease the shaft it rides on.

Noticed today it made a noise about 3/4 of the way down. Kinda like a quick grind. Almost as if I'm pushing it too far. While driving today I lost the clutch. Has solid pressure but just wouldn't go into gear. After messing with it for a while I realized the clutch works if I press it halfway. Anymore and it makes a noise and won't shift.

Anyone have any ideas? Too much push? Spring? I don't even wanna say the other possibility. I can video the noise if need be.

You have the clutch adjustment overextended and you will destroy your clutch, TOB and bellhousing if you don't fix the situation. Back off the master cylinder adjustment rod at least 4-6 full revolutions away from the master cylinder. Your pressure plate diaphragm spring fingers are contacting your clutch disk hub because it is over disengaging .

Well I guess it's time to pull the tranny again. I adjusted the rod into the pedal assembly more and now I hear a clunk noise when I try to put it into gear. I also depressed the slave with the fork while the car was running and at the end it makes a horrible grinding noise. Hopefully nothing on or in the transmission is broken. uugghh I thought you were supposed to adjust the master as far as you could before it blocked off the bleeder valve.
