Default Help with clutch

I am having problems with the clutch. the tranny feels notchy. the clutch pedal goes in nice and easy but when I try to put it in gear it is really tough. now we adjusted the clutch pedal by rotating the nut on and shaft to get the pedal a little higher. now the car will not start. it is acting like the neutral safety switch is not engaging. but I have never looked into this. what am I looking for. if not that then I dont know what else it could be.
thanks
Wesley

Sounds like a hydraulic problem. What brand of clutch?

found out today that my starter went bad as well as the neutral safety switch. talk about weird timing for stuff to go bad.
thanks.
