question about the pedal off the floor thing
are eclipe clutches different than some because
when i had the clutch in my old 93 RX7 rebuilt
one of the signs that it was going bad was that it would not engage off of the floor
is that a specific for dsm trannys or was i given bad advice

thanks

What about sticking to the floor.

When letting out the clutch certain times, the pedal will stick just for a slight moment. It definately feels different than it used to.

I would check your clutch lines first, there is maybe a leak somewhere. Mine did that also, it happen to be a small crack on the clutch line connecting to the slave cylinder. Symptoms would be clutch pressure changing while driving
 
a big sign is what happened to me. i was on first and then it locked up. i came to a stop and the car was runing but the car wouldnt do anything if i put it in first LOL. that means the clutch went bad.
