Default stalling

Anyone ever heard of this one? when I press the clutch to the floor the car stalls. if I press it 1/2 way down (enough to dissengage the disk it's fine) I have an adjustable cable, centerforce clutch, and the clutch switch is bypassed. I can't seem to figure this one out. Driving w/o using the clutch is the only way I can get around. someone help me out

it sounds like a neutral saftey switch that is gone bad.. but by saying the clutch switch is bypassed do you mean you bypassed your neutral saftey switch?


.... man.. i shouldnt help you because i just read you put a aero nose on your 4-eye.

Did you do an auto to 5 spd swap? Or was it an original 5 spd car?

a auto to 5 speed swap wouldent affect it because you would get the cluch to go with the tranny and i wouldent be having these problems in the first place

to make metters even worse I bought the car w/ the swap. the switch that tells the comp. that I'm pressing the clutch is bypassed. Don't think it's the clutch cuz it doesn't slip at all.

too bad I can't make it go right. I have to press the clutch and slam it into gear and I can't use the clutch to shift
