Make sure that clevis pin (1) floats freely in the bore of clutch pedal. It should not be bound by clevis or clutch pedal.
1. If clevis pin is not free, make sure that clutch pedal position switch (2) is not applying pressure to clutch pedal causing clevis pin to bind. To adjust, loosen lock nut (3) and turn clutch pedal position switch.
2. Tighten lock nut. Refer to "EXPLODED VIEW ".
3. Make sure that clevis pin floats in the bore of clutch pedal. It should not be bound by clutch pedal.

Check clutch hydraulic and system components (clutch master cylinder, CSC, etc.) for sticking or binding.
1. If any sticking or binding is found, repair or replace related parts as necessary.
2. If hydraulic system repair was necessary, bleed the clutch hydraulic system. Refer to "AIR BLEEDING PROCEDURE ".
  NOTE: Do not use a vacuum assist or any other type of power bleeder on this system. Use of vacuum assist or power bleeder will not purge all the air from the system.
