I just got a fresh 7a-fe swap into my 1995 ST. Since I't been done, the car bogs and sometimes dies in early morning startup. I thought it was an injector problem, swapped them with no success. I also adjusted throttle opening.

Recently, my clutch engagement has been noticably different, the clutch engages unless the pedal is absolutely buried. This only happens periodically, specifically if I have the clutch depressed for a long period of time.

Today, I put the car into reverse and after backing out, it would not come out of gear and was slowly creeping backward although I had the clutch fully depressed. The engine bogged and died, as if I couldn't get the clutch to disengage. After pumping the clutch and restarting the car, the vehicle ran fine. I still have sporadic issues with the clutch engaging unusually early through pedal travel.

Is there an adjustment I can look into to seperate the clutch farther from the flywheel? What do you think my problem is? I'm driving my car like it's a DSM (keeping off the clutch, like 2g DSMers do to avoid crankwalk) and I would really enjoy going back to being able to ride the clutch for quick stops and turns. Any Ideas?

check the levels on the clutch fluid resevoir and top up if needed

also have you bleed the system since the install?

Make sure the system's been bled, and it's possible you have a bad seal in one of your clutch cylinders. Have someone depress the clutch totally while you watch the slave cylinder on the front of the tranny, if it engages and then slowly disengages by itself then you know something is wrong internally.

sounds like you need to bleed the clutch again

I have monday off work, I'll tell you how it goes.
