[QUOTE="x182dan, post: 571940, member: 9725"] Ok guys I think my car might be f'ed up. I was out cruising around for about 1hour today. Just on the highway. I was getting on it occasionally but not beating the car stupid. I then had a biker on my ass so I downshifted to 3rd and got on it. It felt fine until I went to go for 5th. Now I didn't even quick shift 5th one bit because I know 5th is a bad gear to quick shift. As soon as I pushed in the clutch I felt a difference. I have no pedal at all until the last inch off the floor. I barely got home. It was so bad I couldn't even take off without slipping the hell out of the clutch. I did the best I could on getting it home without destroying the clutch. I'm pretty confident that the clutch should be fine. Now as soon as I got home I checked the cable, adjustable quadrant and all seemed well. Since I had all this new slack in the cable I loosened my quadrant which made the clutch tighter. Now here comes the thing that really is confusing to me. I had the clutch pushed in and revved the motor. Now I have ZERO clutch pedal feel. I lost all pedal feel after I revved the motor with the clutch on the floor. Does that mean my clutch fork is stuck? I'm really hoping I don't have to remove the tranny again. The clutch is only a year old. I still have the original clutch cable with 120k on it and fiore firewall adjuster and quadrant. Any ideas on what went on? The clutch has never made any noise before and worked awesome until today. Dan [/QUOTE]
