clutch noises

Had a new clutch put in back in the spring and upgraded to a solid flywheel now it has developed a cricket type squeel Gentle pressure on the clutch pedal causes it to go away. What do I need to make it quit? Is this the predacessor to worse things?

Did you do the full Luk conversion c/w cylinders?

Sounds like the throw-out bearing is riding all the time. I am not that familiar with the Luk set-up. How did you adjust the new clutch?

I am sure somebody will come along who is more familiar on adjusting the Luk clutch set-up.

Seb....

Won't turn over

Here is a mystery I am not in the mood for today. I went out and started the truck up. Normal start right off the bat. I let it idle for about 10 min. while I did a few things and then I noticed a small fuel leak at one of the injectors. Took the line off and tapped the cap down thinking it had come loose. Put the line back on and tried to start it again. It would hardly even turn over. Seemed like it was locking up, like hydraulic lock. Seems to have plenty of juice in the battery. Any thoughts?
