Default New Clutch problems

Hey fellow scion drivers,

I just put in a new stage 2 clutch on my 2006 scion tc about 2 weeks ago, it has about 100 miles on it. When I drive sometimes when i try to put it in first it gets stuck and I have to turn the car off and on again for it to work.. it doesnt happen all the time but it does sometimes.

/when i am in nutral and want to go first i have to force it up to first sometimes idk is that just part of the "break in period">?

If not, someone told me I need to:
re adjust my clutch..
And
Bleed my clutch

anyideas guys?

and can someone explain ho i can do these things?

Sounds like a throwout bearing issue I also had awhile back. How low to the floor does the clutch pedal travel until it actually engages?

maybe you should have bought a better clutch. reviews are mixed. but the majority of them go downhill

Where is the engagement? low to the floor? Sounds like an adjustment should be done first befor an assumption can be made that other componets are bad.

there is 12 mm locknut you must loosen, then turn the shaft so that you have minmal play or you find the the clutch engages where you like.

The higher it engages the easier the shifting will become.
