If the clutch is not completely disengaging you could have problems shifting into gear. The clutch SHOULD disconnect the engine from the transmission, meaning that when the pressure plate backs off the clutch disk the clutch disk should turn freely. A couple potential problems could prevent the clutch disk from completely disengaging or at least turning freely: First possibility, If you didn't adequately clean and re-lube the pilot bushing or glan nut (depending on which you have) the pilot shaft will "drag" a little, causing the shaft to turn. If the shaft receives even a little torque from the engine, you will have trouble shifting. Second possibility, the clutch disk is slightly warped, making it rub against the flywheel or pressure plate. If it's much pressure at all the clutch disk will want to turn resulting in the same problem described above. Third possibility, the hydraulic clutch is in need of a little attention and isn't fully depressing the throwout bearing. Good luck.

Why would the newly replaced clutch on a 1997 Isuzu Rodeo not depress without a ton of force and actually feel like it is pushing back at a certain point?

Something is installed incorrectly. Most likely you did not install the "Pull clutch" properly. With a 1997 Rodeo clutch, the release bearing actually snaps into the ring in the clutch, and when the clutch is depressed the release bearing pulls the clutch, rather than the standard "Push clutch" model. So, when you are depressing the pedal, the clutch is not being pulled away, giving you the hard pedal feel. Make sure when installing your release bearing that you remove the small ring from the back of the connector ring on the clutch before you insert the release bearing, and then snap it back on after the release bearing is completely installed or the clutch will not work properly.

Why is your clutch pedal catching at various locations on a 95 civic?

This may be due to a faulty clutch. If the vehicle has over 70K on the clutch it is reccomended that it be replaced. If the clutch "slips" or takes a min before it finally engages then i would reccomed replacing the clutch. Make sure to change the Release Bearing and the pilot bearing as well this may also contribute to the problem.

What causes a clicking sound in the transmission of a 1988 Acura Legend?

Check the clutch release bearing, and also loot at the clutch release arm. Whenever the clutch release bearing is not properly lubricated, (ON THE SURFACES OF CONTACT TO THE PRESSURE PLATE AND THE MAINSHAFT) then the metal drag will pull and cause the release bearings holding bracket to "sit and click" Let me know how it goes, stryker0086@cox.net (I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCEI HAVE AN 88 LEGEND COUPE THAT I HAVE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION ON)
