    hey there, i installed my new clutch yesterday in my three speed to find when i go to push the clutch pedal it falls into the ground and wont really retract, i am confused to why this happens with a new clutch? maby i put the release bearing on backwards? give me some advice guys thanks!
     
  2. Did you check adjustment? It could be many things. Adjustment, fork not on the ball, bearing in wrong.
     
  3. 1-The pedal falls to the floor board with no resistance at all?
    2-Did it have normal resistance but fail to return?
    3-Do you remember if it had an inch or 2 of free play in the pedal before meeting that normal resistance (clutch may have got pushed past "center")
    4-Where in Socal are you?

    What are you working on?

    The following could be added to the other suggestions that were given. Can you look in to see if the throw out bearing is upside down. Did you talk to whoever sold you the clutch to make sure they sold you the correct parts?
