clutch question
I recently had the clutch replaced in my 98 cavalier. I'm glad it is running again but the clutch pedal feels very different. The pedal can be pushed at least halfway down before it releases. And it engages about half an inch off the floor. It feels very easy to push down. Is this normal for a new clutch? Can the tension on the pedal be adjusted any?

follow the clutch hydraulic line down to the bell housing. the bleeder screw should be visible near the point where the line goes into the bell housing.
pump up the clutch pedal then hold it down, then crack open the bleeder.
If you have never bleed hydraulic lines before; this type of hydraulic clutch can be difficult and if done wrong could actually make it worse.
Consider taking it back to the shop who did the clutch if they just did it. Tell them your not happy with the clutch pedal engagement; they may bleed it for free.
