i got a new clutch cable about a week ago because my other one snapped. i have aftermarket clutch and audjustable clutch quadrant/firewall, it was good for a few days after the new cable, real smoothe pushing down but now its real stiff and getting into gear is sometimes a b*tch and have to force it. any help on wut could be wrong... ive tried pulling back on the clutch pedal, adjusting the firewall, nothing seems to be working to getting it back to "normal"

pulling up on the pedal will not work anymore if you have a aftermarket quad. you have to adjust the cable using the firewall adjuster.

As far as your cable goes did you install it? If so did you run it around and tight bends? If somebody else installed it I would check to see how they ran it.

Sounds like clutch cable. Easy fix if you can check it out.
