Reply to "clutch cable......need help"

-BATHTUB-

I just replaced my clutch cable and something isn't right! After putting the new cable on, I held the clutch pedal with approx 1/2 inch of freeplay as suggested and tightened the wingnut connecting everything together. After taking it for a roadtest I found that I only need to depress the clutch pedal approx 1-2 inches to disengage the engine and change gears. The pedal feels firm throughout it's range of motion. I have tried adjusting it several times but have been unsuccessful. Is there something else I need to do with the adjustment or could it be a greater problem...... possibly the clutch itself? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. Tim.
