Best Answer

I'm assuming you mean why does the clutch still engage at a high point after replacement;

When you replace your clutch it is normally due to it being burnt out from overheating or from extensive wear of the flywheel. Long travel in the clutch pedal is caused by extensive wear on the flywheel, so if it was replaced due to being burnt out, replacement will not alter the travel (the distance between plates has not changed).

Either that or the mechanic who replaced it did not properly adjust it.

What does clutch drag on a new clutch mean?

Clutch drag is when the clutch pedal is fully depressed and the clutch is still partially engaged. When the clutch pedal is released or in the up position the engine is connected to the transmission input shaft. When the pedal is depressed or in the down position the engine is disconnected completely from the transmission. When the clutch drags it is still partially attached to the engine. A dragging clutch can cause a glazed flywheel and premature failure of the clutch. It will also cause the syncros to work twice as hard to slow down or speed up a gear inside the transmission when shifting. Basically syncros will wear out faster than normal and may not work properly depending on how bad the clutch drag is.

First you need to make sure that all the air is bleed out of the slave cyinder. Then to adjust the point at which the clutch will engage, tighten or loosen the pushrod nut. It will be near the clutch pedal on a little rod between the firewall and pedal (the pushrod).
