clutch question
i just noticed today that when i push my clutch pedal in all the way, i can hear the clutch still spinning. its like a smooth surface rub sound (sorry only way i can describe it). also i noticed lately that sometimes i have to use a little more effort to shift into each gear. but when i get it into gear, it does not slip out. could this mean that i need to adjust my clutch cable, or that the cable has stretched? i already have an aftermarket quadrant and cable. much help with this problem will be greatly appreciated.

There should be 1" to 1-1/4" free play in the pedal. Press on it with your hand and observe the distance it travels before you feel the TOB start to depress the clutch spring fingers--if not adjust the cable.
The clutch pedal/quadrant and release lever have an overall mechanical advantage of 10:1 or so, making 1" to 1-1/4" free play at the pedal equal 0.100" to 0.125" clearance between the TOB and the clutch spring fingers--I.e. "right on the money"...
