Default Stage 4 competition Clutch not disengaging..

Alright, well my other transmission and clutch kinda took a shit on me. I bought another transmission, a brand new stock Flywheel and a Stage 4 comp clutch 6 puck sprung. I put it in, goes in gears okay. Second, not so much. Upon driving it further...I notice the clutch doesn't fully disengage which makes it hard to go into gear at a stop light. I have bled this fucking slave cylinder like 10 times, no air comes out just a burst of fluid. What are your opinions?



Cliff notes:

Pilot bearing,throw out bearing, trans, stage 4 clutch put in.
Doesn't disengage fully
Bled clutch Slave Cyl a lot.
Same symptoms.

Did you try adjusting the pedal?

Did you put in the clutch disc backwards?

Did one of the springs pop out and wedge itself between the surfaces?

Is your shift fork bent?

I flushed out my nasty clutch fluid with our snap on brake flush machine, put in the OEM Clutch slave cylinder and adjusted the pedal and its Tip top shape again, I did some research and shit and went at it. Thanks for the replys!

I've NEVER had to adjust the pedal for clutch adjustment ever.

Only reason I could see this being a issue is if someone adjusted it before you.

And I have had alot of crucial clutches, and alot of different motor swaps.

I've always had a problem with clutches in this car before, the person before me didn't know much about it. Everything is great so far, except I still have a shitty transmission that was sold to me.
