Re: Different from any clutch question I've seen.

by "William Noble" <nobody@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Nov 29, 2007 at 11:48 PM

if you replaced clutch and flywheel and pressure plate all at once, I don't

see how that can be an issue - is it possible that there are two notches 
where you hook up the cable and you used the wrong one?  I don't know your

car but I had that happen on a different car once - I think what you are 
describing sounds like a too short clutch fork.  Do you have the ****sche 
manual for your car?  do you have PET6?  both those can help confirm
correct 
parts, but this sounds to me like some kind of assembly error
