There is no adjustment for this clutch.  Did they install a new clutch kit
when they did the other work?  You could have some air trapped in the
system if they recently repaired the clutch hydraulic system.  If not then
either you have a failing clutch master cylinder, your clutch is worn out,
the fork that engages the throw out bearing is dying, or (my guess) they
forgot to install a pilot bearing in the end of the crankshaft when they
did the motor rebuild.

I'm dissatisfied with my clutch adjustment on my new tranny. It seems to
engage to soon in really low gears, and doesn't shift cleanly out of re
verse and first, or go back in. Is there any adjustment I can make. Seems
like there are always some things I'm better off doing myself,when possible.

Thanks.
