Is The Cable A Stock Type An Is It Cable New Or Used? If You Have A Stock Quadrant Then That May Be Your Problem There Is A Adjustment On The Quadrant Get Under There An Look I Forget Exactly How To Adjust It But You'll Figure It Out When You Look At It In Case You Dont No What An Quadrent Is Thats The Lever That Your Clutch Cable Attaches To Under Your Dash Get An Aftermarket One (alluminum One) The Stock One Has Little Teeth On It That Strips Off

To adjust the stock quadrant, pull up on the clutch pedal. You will hear a ratcheting sound if it adjusts.
