e_900se

i have a 1994 900se 2.0L turbo. Replaced the clutch and clutch cable about a year ago. For some reason the clutch doesn't engage until the pedal is nearly at the floor. There about 3 inches of pedal movement before the clutch engages. I am worried that there is continuous damage being done, but i cannot figure out a solution. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks alot
