What is it exactly? How do i measure the freeplay? My friend told me it's the pedal distance from where the gear is fully engaged and on.

Okay so i adjusted my freeplay (or so i thought) to .1 inches like the manual says. But today i drove the car and i wasn't getting any power. it felt like the clutch was stuck on the friction point even though i had my foot off the pedal and i wasn't getting any freeplay at all. I adjusted the freeplay again but now i'm just confused as to how to measure freeplay. Somebody help please.
