ok some people here might know i just put a new clutch in my car, anyways the clutch was working wonderfully,perfect, i let my dad drive it down the road after i put about a hundred mile son it, but i stil had a 400 miles to go before it would be broke in, my dad decides to stop and drop the clutch in 1sr gear and barked them in 2nd gear and now the ******* clutch doesnt feel like its engaing until its about 1/4 of the way off the floor, i dont remember when it used to engage because it was a brand new clutch, what is the height the new clutch should engage at?where does your clutch enage if you have put a new oem clutch in(mine is from autozone) did my dad **** it up because it wasnt broke in yet, i gonna kill him if i have to put another one in! i dont wanna do al that **** again any time soon...........piece ,thanks for reading this long *** post, later :bigok:

1/4 of the way sounds about right to be honest, it may be a little much. He could have glazed it a little depending on how bad he dumped it.

Had a friend of mine do it in an old Ford truck about 8.5 minutes after we put the clutch in, his driveway was steap, we took it for a spin around the block and he started roasting it pulling into the driveway... I couldn't believe it.

I wouldn't be to worried about it, unless it is a significant difference from when you initially put the clutch in. Btw, when you say "piece" do you mean it as in a piece of pie, or "peace," like hippy stuff. Just wondering because everytime I see "piece" I'm thinking a piece of something, lol.

did you bleed all the air out? Sometimes air rises and changes the pedal feel, and or......make sure you don't have a leak in your hose lines.. But that really sounds about right
