After the failed attempt at changing my crank pulley,
see thread here:
Lets talk pulley
My clutch pedal engagement is now very high and I want to say softer feel. Not certain on feel but definitely higher engagement.
A little back story, if you don't read the pulley thread. I had the gear in 6th and PB set while trying to break the crank pulley bolt loose, turning engine backwards. I tried 1st gear, but it engine was turning.
I put a lot of force on the breaker bar. I did hear a clunk once I released PB and put xmission in neutral after many attempts.
Anyway, changed the serpentine belt, put everything back together and went for a drive.
No noises, no gear grinding or poor engagement of gears. No clutch slippage in all phases of throttle. No CEL or others. Car seems to be driving normal.
Starting in 1st, its high engagement but I feel the clutch grab. Going from 2nd to 3 or 4th to 5th, it's high pedal engagement but I feel no definitive "grab". If I try to press gas based on my habits and middle clutch pedal engagement, obviously car will surge forward based on higher engagement.
My only guess is that I have deformed the Diaphragm springs on clutch cover.

Any other thoughts/suggestions?
