So, I'm going to bleed the system after i get home from school today. Still have a ton of ATE Super Blue in the garage, Dot 4, so I'm going to use that with the clutch. If this doesn't fix my problem, i will replace the clutch like we planned.

What do you think about this kit? If you know of this company, and know that they make good kits, I will buy this, cause, well, it's a Deal! Is that kit complete?

Valeo is the manufacuter.

Remember, bleeding the clutch is NOT like bleeding the brakes...all the pedal pumping is VERY slow, again NOT like the brakes. Count to 20 for one pump...which may be slow but it works

LOL, Thanks for the info Randy! I didn't know about pumping slowly.

Gino: but what is you professional opinion on the above linked clutch, made by Valero. The Ebay seller looks like a very good seller, and Reading others replies, 98% love their clutches.

I don't know nothing...but if Gino likes it I like it The box is pretty and the alignment tool is worth the price. It sure looks complete (clutch plate and disc with T/O bearing) and that it will do the work of an OEM clutch for much less. Only time will tell

Well, i bled it.

Feels slightly better. 1st gear engages better. However regular shifting, still the same. Still waaaay back at the end of pedal travel. I'm going to see what i can find on this clutch, maybe call this place up and talk to them.

thanks for all the information!
