What have you done so far to adjust it? Did you put in the throwout bearing the right way?

Re: 1983 z28 clutch adjustment

I got your email... you adjusted it all the way out? How much free play is in the pedal itself? It should have about 1/2 or so when just sitting at the top.

Can you take any pics of the linkage, so we can see what your dealing with, or maybe someone can spot something that maybe you overlooked?

Post back here though, as someone else may know something or suggest something that you or I may not.
