check your fluids
check the MC
tighten the screws behind the pedal.

all clutch pedals have that 1-inch of travel. It is called "free play" it is adjustable too, so if you want to get rid of it, I guess you can. In the chilton's manual, it says that the free play should be 0.6-0.8 inches.
So, I would just leave it the way it is. That would be my advice. Probably there for a reason.

if u wanna adjust it, where the pedal engages into the master cylinder, there is a nut u can screw. the more u screw it, the pedal will go in further eliminatin ur play. i did this to my friends accord when i swap his auto tranny out and threw in a h22 5 spd.
