i have the bbk fier wall adjuster on my car, and my clutch was slipping, so i adjusted the fier wall adjuster, and the clutch does not slip as much as it did, i adjusted it like 2 turns, am i suppost to now adjust the pedal also?? I love how the stiff ness feeling has came back to my clutch pedal, was 2 turns too much?? the clutch is abought 7 months old, i think it was slipping due to an oil leak, and some oil got into the clutch area.

If you haven't changed anything else about your clutch cable then lift up on the clutch pedal, or pull back whatever, and that will adjust your pedal. But a slipping clutch isn't your cables fault if you have replaced it. Time for a new clutch!

How far off the floor does your clutch engage?..Did you buy the kit W/ cable & quadrant?... Check the clutch fork and cable under the car... When you are NOT pressing the pedal there should be at least 1/8th of an inch of slack between the fork and the end of the cable(The more slack the higher the pedal has to go for the clutch to engage)...Hope I could Help
