Alright I have had this baby in for a few weeks now and its been doing this for some time now. I bled the clutch when I first put it in and the engagement point was moved all the way to the floor and when I let it out and try to start faster than normal it would start to engage then wont fully engage until it reaches the top. It started chattering real bad as well then I bled it again and the chattering stopped, but the engagement point moved to about halfway. And it still wouldnt fully engage until it reached the top.
Ive never experienced anything like that could someone tell me whats going on???
Also you know how when you open your door and theres like this bump where the door will settle in until you push on it harder so it will open all the way. My clutch is doing the same thing. What the hell is going on??????

I had it resurfaced.

did you put it in the right way?
AH! i had that exact problem! just put in a new clutch cable! it has a special tube that shinks to fix that problem.
you WILL feel the clutch engaging when you take just a little off the clutch giving you the best feel and you wont have to worry about it not being fully engaged.
the stock clutch cable is just a moulded metal tube that just stinks. and it would be over halfway to engage the clutch. its not safe for the clutch aswell most cases the clutch never fully disengages and you will grind your gears. sometimes it would be hard to put it into 1st gear you have to let go of the clutch and stomp it again to make it go in gear.
i bought mine for $50. it may save your clutch and gearbox!
^^^Would I be able to get that at lets say an autozone. Thanks if that fixes it your my new hero. What is the new clutch tube made out of? Where did you get yours?
