Antifreeze comes out of the cap? You mean out of the overflow? If so, too much pressure in the cooling system could be a sign of a blown head gasket.

i bet it did. i got a heavier clutch (not as tough as a spec3, though) and had the same problem for about a month when it finally stopped stretching. i had an adjustable, so it was just a pain in the ass to readjust every other time i wanted to drive it. as for the other problem, the antifreeze eruption, check that youre not boiling that stuff. i was a jerk and thought my radiator and a small electric fan were going to keep the 5.8 cool. wrong. i boiled that stuff and the cap was spewing.
