My 94 has a Jegs cable and firewall adjuster. I've never had one an aftermarket adjuster before. Before I start messing with it, how do you adjust it? Until there is no slack? Counter or clockwise. Any help is apreciated.

You should have slack in the cable initially (otherwise you couldn't get it installed). Remove slack by turning the FWA CCW till there is no slack in the cable.

That's what I was thinking but was not 100%. Dis that and the clucth feels so much better. The shop that did the clutch last year said that the cable was bad because there was a really stiff pedal. So I bought the new cablef rom Jegs (previous owner put the kit in) but figured I would try adjusting it before I replaced the cable. Noe the pedal is smooth and has a more consistant feel than before. There was about a 1/4" or more of slack. Thanks
