Clutch pedal won't return on its own

[DPL]

Hey everyone,

I am just finishing off my 4 speed conversion on my 69 RT and I figured I had everything done when I got into the car and found the pedal when depressed will not return on its own.  If I bring it back maybe 1/3 of the way it then springs back.

Any suggestions?  I am hoping the clutch itself isn't the issue.

Thanks in advance,

DPL

My kid brother just had some Chinese built clutch assembly in his 66 that he bought at a local discount store.  When he'd step on the pedal, the throughout bearing would actually slip through the fingers on the pressure plate.  He  called Brewer's and got a new clutch. No problem since.

did you use a diaphram clutch ? if so you must remove the overcenter spring

Is there a spring pulling the throwout fork forward?

[DPL]

Yep, diaphram clutch.

Remove the over center spring and WALLA!

Rolling Thunder - Awesome.

If you guys would quit using Chevy clutches you wouldn't have to fix the problems you create!
