89 Iroc Heavy clutch pedal
I just purchased a five speed Iroc. The pedal is a lot stiffer than I remember them being. It has the hyd. OEM ram cylinder. It feels like a old hot rod Zoom pressure plate. I found a receipt that the clutch has been changed and it looks like a autoparts type OEM replacement from five years ago. Any ideas??
Thanks
Kenny

Maybe your just not used to it. The pedal in my car feels heavy after not driving it for a while since the clutch on my DD is a lot softer

Hey Kenny, nice to see you here. We had a PM discussion on your car on the Yenko site.
If the previous owner used a heavy duty pressure plate, it could make your hydraulic clutch feel heavy. Also, it's possible that your master cylinder might need a good bleeding. Or like 86TA said, you need to drive it a bit.
