i was just doing the clutch pedal adjustment|lifting pedal and fully depressing it in my garage|and now i hear a springy noise(thats a technical term) coming from near the clutch when i depress and release the clutch. could the cable have too much tension now? it is a very loud spring noise and i depressed and released the clutch multiple times and it still makes the noise. i have the tremic tr- 3650

Is there a bird-chirping type of noise?

If so, throw out bearing...

i suspect the cable might be overtensioned and is binding? does anyone know how to loosen and retighten the cable?

The stock clutch cable is self adjusting, so it shouldnt get too tight... Its your throwout bearing, its a very common problem in our cars... Does the squeeling or chirping go away when you depress the clutch peddle a little bit? If it does then its the throw out bearing for sure. My throwout bearing started squeaking at 38,000miles.[:@] Then I replaced it and the clutch, now the new throwout bearing is squeaking bad again at 50,000miles
