Default Clutch Problems

My clutch is STICKYY. It sucks ***. I just replaced clutch, clutch fork, pressure plate and flywheel about 3000 miles ago.I only have to press the clutch pedal about two inches to shift isnt that a little close or something?? Then when i press all the way down it will stick for about 1 or 2 seconds before it slowly comes back to the resiting position which takes about a total of 4 to 6 seconds. Ive pulled back on the clutch pedal and heard the infamous click of the clutch adjusting itself but it does nothing for it. ANy ideas!!!!!! and its pretty cold up here the last week ranged from 5 to 35 degrees in the last few weeks. but ive driven the car for about 20 to 30 miles yesterday i one trip and it stil was sticky and whatnot. Thanks!!!!!

Default RE: Clutch Problems

Did you grease your throwout bearing and your pivot ball where your clutch fork pivots when you put it together? That could be one of your sticky spots. Your Stock Quadrant(plastic clicky piece) could be sticking as well and just need to be replaced
