Ok. Last week me and my dad put a new clutch in my car. Today, when got to my house, I reved up my engine with the car in neutral, and it made a weird sound. It was kind of like a ticking sound. I didnt notice it when I was driving. It does it when I rev it up and it drops back down. When it gets back to the lower rpms it makes the sound. When I push in the clutch just a little bit, the sound stops. Does anyone know what my problem is? Also, my clutch pedal has been vibrating when I am driving. It vibrates when it is all the way out, but if I put my foot on the pedal a little bit, it stops vibrating. This makes me think these two things are related. It just today started the sound. Any ideas?

Ok thanks alot. Now a questiona bout that. Is there a way to tighten the stock cable? If not, can I buy an adjuster that goes on the firewall and use it with the stock cable?

Click to expand...
lift up on the stock pedal to adjust the stock cable.

a FWA works with the stock cable (which is the preferred cable and reason FWA's are around - most aftermarket cables are adjustable without a FWA).

good luck.
