Default new clutch installed

alrihgt i jsut broke the bearings on my 112,000 mile clutch just installed a new one and now the clutch pedal is completlly diffrent. Before i changed it my clutch was like spring loaded and would pop out whihc made for some fast shifts. Now the clutch is effortless i varlly touch it and it sinks to the floor i was wondering if there was anyway to adjust this?

What kind of clutch did you install? Sinking effortlessly to the floor doesn't sound very good! Did you bleed your clutch master cylinder?

ummm yea first your have to get and engine hoist then your strap it up to your tranny disconect all tranny hydrolic lines drop the tranny out of the car and it keeps going and going and last time i tried it on a freinds car it ended up taking us 3 days of work. Granted we had to run back and forht to the store for toolds taht we didnt have but it takes teh shop about a day to so either way pain in the ass

I agree with drumsy that is not a good sign at all
