i just basically took off my upper intake and valve covers to switch my rockers. upon hooking it all back up, my pedal sits really low to the floor now. there is maybe 1/3 of the normal pedal movement.

i've never had any problems hooking it back up before or done it any differently. there doesnt seem to be any binding. what is there i can check to fix this?

im really out of patience with this car after the last few days so i want to get this bs overwith as soon as i can. thanks

the only thing i can think of is something is holding it up??? twisted on something? if it closer to the floor something is holding it.

i got it working now, but when you push the pedal the first part and the last part, it clicks.

i can open it manually all the way and shut under the hood and it does nothing, but pushing the pedal in the car causes the noises. nothing is binding. the noise also comes from under the hood it isint making sense to me.

damn this car
