The clutch engages right off the floor. Any way to get it to engage about half way thru its travel? If it needs to be adjusted, do I want to loosen the nuts at the threaded end of the cable at the transaxle or tighten them some more.
This was supposed to have been fixed while the car was in for service, but they made it worse. Thanks for the help. |

Tighten them. Sometimes you need to install a spacer tube between the nuts that clevis to gain some additional adjustment.
