clutch problem
ok today i swapped in a new motor with a BRAND new clutch. the clutch was installed correctly, ie torqued to honda specifications, and lubed with grease and new bearings installed. upon starting the motor i tried to shift through the gears while the car was parked. heres the problem....... when i depress the clutch pedal all the way to the floor i cant switch gears BUT if i play with the pedal about halfway down i can switch gears. its tricky but i can get it to work. and the second thing is when i depress the clutch pedal all the way to the floor with it in gear it engages?????? almost like a second engagement. its really fuckin wierd and i have never encountered this problem before. so i need to know what to do to fix it so i can shift gears like a normal car.
And before anyone ask i blead the piss out the clutch system cuz that was my first thought on what to fix it.so any other suggestions would be nice.

you did use a clutch alignment tool correct?....you did put the throw out bearing on correctly right?. if it was a used tranny i would have tore it down and checked it out myself, how about your shift linkage is it properly pulling the shift fork?, is your throw out fork stuck somewhere?. you need to start all over again......

technically you can put the throw out bearing on backwards and it would still mount up correctly but you wouldnt be able to shift at all, your prolly right though its most likely a hydraulic issue, so just go and check all the usuals, clutch master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder, all the lines, maybe somehow its not pushing the cylinder shaft into the throwout fork enough at some point and then it gets the full force, it sounds like a weird problem, just investigate i guess.......
