Gears slip With AC on... help!!

[BadgerType]

between the firewall and the clutch pedal should be 2-3 big washers that act as spacers.

if you do not have them on the car, your clutch pedal will always be engaged and will soon be slipping all the time

wait wait im still a little confused on how the ac takes part in this?? wouldnt it be slipping even with the ac off if it was the spacers then?

this ac things so weirdddddd lol..

if the car is under more stress, it could cause it to slip even more.

i could be wrong, but you have no idea how many people have had similar slipping clutches after the manual swap that pm me for help

okay so i checked, didnt see any noticable spacers there, i could be wrong.. do you have a pic of what its supposed to look like...?
also, the engine was swapped out for a ulev v tec... but they didnt do any of the wiring work, so my v tec doesnt kick in... i bought the car with the swap already done so am finding things out after the fact...

i dont have pictures of the spacers, but the reason for the spacers is because on manual cars, there are humps on the firewall that the pedal sits on, our auto ones do not.

you need about 1/4" of space i would say, but you need to verify everything eith the master cyl; making sure it is not engaged at all
