If I'm reading this right, when you press the pedal, you are compressing the return spring???

The spring should hold the fork away from the throw out bearing. It sounds like yours is holding the fork against the throwout bearing.... or in other words, assisting the clutch pedal.

To disengage the clutch, does your fork move towards the front of the car or to the rear? I'm getting a funny picture here in my mind when I try to understand what you have there.
