Just replaced my clutch and I think I fixed the problem that I had, but I figured I would see if anybody else had this problem anyway.
To start I am very familiar with clutches and I have watched the jacks tranny video.
I adjusted it at first and it grabbed rite off the floor after a while of driving it grabbed real high (slipped under boost)
Then I bled the system again to turn the shaft on the pedal counter clockwise ### the first time I adjusted it I noticed I was at the last of its threads all the way clockwise.
anyway I adjusted counter clockwise to get the pedal perfect and It grabbed rite off the floor. Took it to the gas station and it did it again (high pedal and slip under boost so I I took it counter clockwise till I got a low pedal and now it seems fine
Beat it last night for a good 15 minutes
so my question is was my slave pumping up and keeping the clutch from releasing and I wasn't past the bleeder and now I am
just looking for mental support
and no I didn't get fluids on the clutch disk
thanks guys :thumb:
 
Had the same issue with my gsx. The pedal is not adjusted correctly and you are experiencing pedal pump up. Read through this page, it really helped me out. I made my clutch grab maybe 3in off the floor it should never grab right away. hope this could help
