Default Clutch adjustment

Okay, I've adjusted the clutch pedal height to be about in line with the brake, and I like how it engages, drives SO much better now. However, the pedal doesn't spring itself all the way back up to "neutral?" position. It comes up to where it's not engaged and doesn't affect how it drives, but I cannot set cruise unless I flick the pedal up the rest of the way with my foot. Meaning there's a little bit of play from how far it springs back up, to how far I can pull it up. How do I correct this? Or did I adjust the pedal too far? I printed out instructions to adjust the pedal three different ways, but am unsure what will fix my problem. Thanks guys...

I think you moved the engagement point too far.

but mine was way worst, it got up to the point where i cant even disengage the gears

what i did was i just brought it back to the factory setting, and had to get use to it

youll get use to it if you give it some time

you put it back to where the factory sets it...it's at that position for a reason.

Sorry to hear these responses. There was quite a bit of info on moving the clutch pedal, I didn't think it was not the right thing to do. I can put it back, but I hate it. Well, thanks anyways.
